Nah, I want to keep VMS 5.5-2 support in for as long as humanly possible.
If we could convince the Q to make the C install kits freely available I'd
be all for requiring Dec C 6.x, but I dunno if they're going to do that. (I
do wish they would--I hate waiting for the next condist, and it's not like
they're not limiting access to valid license holders anyway...)
