564.0. "4.1 ? Official MF product matrix ?" by SPANIX::JULIANR (ALPHAbet = Our bet on ALPHA) Mon Mar 17 1997 05:58

	Two things:

	- One of our customers is demanding MF COBOL 4.1.6 or above which 
seems to be available on other platforms, namely IBM AIX 4.1.
	- The official MF web site (www.microfocus.com), in the UNIX 
product matrix, only states DEC OSF/1 3.0 and MicroFocus 3.2B as the 
versions supported. Somebody should contact their WebMaster so he/she could 
update the PUBLIC product matrix.

	Best regards,

re: V4.1 on Digital UNIX

Micro Focus COBOL V4.1 is being ported to Digital UNIX and will eventually
be released.   I believe Micro Focus uses IBM AIX as one of their
product development platforms and therefore has products released
on that platform prior to the port to others.   The product manager may
be able to help if you need estimates on product release dates on Digital
UNIX.

re: V3.2 listed for Digital UNIX on the Micro Focus product matrix

The Micro Focus product for Digital UNIX is distributed both through Digital
and through Micro Focus.   For some reason, Micro Focus kept their release
at Micro Focus COBOL V3.2 through their distribution, even though the
Digital release is Micro Focus COBOL V4.0.   The product matrix that they
use doesn't list distribution through their OEM's, only the products
as they're available from Micro Focus directly.
