"I am not opposed to coders above 47. Perhaps they could help us with cobol bindings..."

Thanks, no problem - that sounds someone just like me.. I wonder if I'm the only KDE Cobol expert? I used to work on tools to convert one dialect of COBOL into another. Coding sheets/punched cards/flowchart templates - it was all as crap as it sounds!

The best COBOL in my opinion was Burroughs '68 - it had some nifty message passing features - great on an early sixties B5500. It well downhill with the '74 version, and got 'too standard'.
