my website on Opensource ports to OpenVMS down

[Jouk Jansen]

Hi All,

Due to the sudden death of the CLP, my website on ports of opensource
software for OpenVMS, http://nchrem.tnw.tudelft.nl/openvms/software1.html
will be down until I manage to get another license.

My backup http://galop.nano.tudelft.nl/openvms/software1.html is still
running until also on Itanium CLP will be finished.

regards
Jouk

Quite frankly, I would advocate for you to NOT bring back any web site
related to porting open source software to OpenVMS -- or provide any of
your time or effort to port said software -- unless VSI reinstates a
reasonable (installation media and LP kits) community license program.

They have now demonstrated that they do not care about competent people
who may be interested in OpenVMS, and as such the community shouldn't
give VSI free resources.

Obviously what you do with your time and energy is up to you, but I'd
strongly encourage you and everyone else VSI may be relying on for free
labor to take a stand.

Thanks,
Matthew
