I know, but I am waiting for some of the features of the 4.x compilers and I
don't get them and have to find expensive workarounds, and the decision not to
go to some of the 4.x versions is driven by economics only. The tech people
don't have any influence on this decision. Let's see, if they start the 4.4
migration project early enough (it's always a project at our site, given the
large source base).

Very strange: I myself made some suggestions for new features to the 4.x
versions which were accepted by Peter Elderon (IBM) and then implemented in the
product, and anyway I can't use them.

Kind regards

Bernd
