I'm surprised you haven't asked what language VSI are using to
implement this new filesystem, given certain opinions you have
expressed in the past. :-)

On a more serious note, I do hope that any new work to VMS is being
done purely in C at a minimum (with maybe even a better higher level
language for the userland code). I think the days of Bliss and
especially Macro-32 are long past for any new code (or at least for
any new source code files added to VMS from now on).

Simon.
