The VSI presentation has a few interesting points:
* revenue and profit and R&D of VSI parent company
   are all growing [!!!]
* plan to hire more people (in Armenia) for compilers
* [as we already knew] native C++, C and Fortran field test underway
* native Cobol and Pascal "moving better than plan"
* OpenJDK "moving better than plan"
* [no mention of native Basic timeline]

It sounds like VSI got the engineering priorities
right. VMS x86-64 is there. Now we need the (native)
compilers.
