	All professional VMS users only wait for HP to continue OpenVMS
	development. But OpenVMS is dying as there is no real new
	installations and as its POSIX subsystem is not sufficient to port
	Unix software without rewrite some pieces of code.

	And same VMS users will cry when HP will announce that 8.4 will be
	the last release.
