RE: Probable discontinuation of this forum

Another vote for continuation.  If you look at the RPG forum there is a core
of contributors and their dialogs seem to run on and on and on like the Ever
Ready Bunny.

Okay. I misunderstood. (Busy morning...)

It's this list, COBOL 400-L, that I would like to see remain up and running.

Thanks,
Kelly

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the issue is the
discontinuation of the iSeries Network COBOL Forum, not this COBOL mailing
list.  If that's correct, then the place to post any requests to keep that
forum around is at www.iseriesnetwork.com COBOL forum, not here.

Personally, I use this mailing list much more than the iSeries forum and
would hate to lose *this* resource!

The COBOL programmers in general have very limited resources when they are
looking for assistance or support.  This is one of the few that seems to
work!
