HP has really draconian marketing rules.  We had to attend a big
training session about what we're allowed to say.  Even if we have
solid internal plans to release a feature, we're pretty much not
allowed to publish that anywhere publicly.  That's just how the whole
company operates.  Doesn't have anything to do with VMS.
