Thanks very much Howard and Rob

I am having trouble with my email settings or hosting provider and actually reading your posts from the archive online, I can't private message.

I am not yet a developer but I really like open Cobol:
http://www.opencobol.org/

This website is frozen due to spambots but the community is alive and well here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/open-cobol/

We no longer have a lead developer. There is still development taking place but it would be good if it was more vibrant.

BDB is used for file related operations such as sorting.

open CObol can be compiled with the older BDB before Oracle or versions after but it looks like it has now been a number of years since Oracle did this.

Open Cobol compiles to intermeditate C so it can play nicely with other code for the most part. While it can call or be called from a variety of languages, for the most part library functionality comes from building it right into the language(this is not such a great thing).

I still need a couple more months to get my skills up to speed to contribute but when I do, I was thinking it would be nice to rip out the aging BDB and replace it with something else AND and add SQL functionality to the language.

Thanks again-Patrick
