I = have posted in VMS forum and if nobody responds it is closed anyway, Anyway= I would not call it nostalgia as I was not attached=C2=A0to VMS but Ingres= at that time.

Anyway I think Python is already av= ailable on VMS so that could probably just fulfill my liking for an opportu= nity to work on VMS again if there is a way.
