All –  For those looking for a new database on OpenVMS (btw - also on Windows).

<see Gerrit’s announcement in a separate comp.os.vms thread regarding the  7 March AVTware, EuroVMS, BGSoftware and user group Interexperience, organized an OpenVMS-event in Eindhoven (NL).  There was a good turnout with 60 people from 8 countries. Before and after the lunch we had 2 database-presentations by Wolfgang Burger and Jan Karremans, followed by a life OpenVMS on VMWare ESXi-demo by Thilo Lauer.>
