HP OpenVMS Engineering has been outsourced to India.  That is where
most of the development occurs.  There was even a posting on it in
here a few months back with the head of HP-UX Engineering (now _there_
is a joke) saying how good it was going to be to have OpenVMS
Engineering in the same building in India now.

What makes you believe HP has even one U.S. citizen still working on
OpenVMS development?  Everybody that was qualified to work on it got
laid off and replaced by people from the $10/day labor pool.  It
shouldn't take them long to reduce the quality of OpenVMS down to that
of HP-UX.
