 >> How about in other places.I don't see much traffic in Code-400 List for
that matter.

Well I wouldn't expect to see much in the Code/400 places - not
surprisingly they are for Code/400! which is not the same as VARPG
(although they are sold together).  All the traffic for VARPG goes through
the very well supported VARPG newsgroup at news.software.ibm.com.  I
suggest you check there - you'll find lots of folks in Europe, Australia,
and elsewhere in the world.

Other than IBM's VARPG web site the only IBM marketing I've seen is at 
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/casest/versatil.htm which details a great product
built by an Australian software house using VARPG.  Of course it doesn't 
promote the tool so much as the software ....

 >> Just my opinions!!

And we're all entitled to those.  I just feel that saying a product is dead
because IBM doesn't market it is hardly valid.  Hell they don't market the
400 worth a damn!  Also as I pointed out above you're looking for "life" in
the wrong places - looking at the Code/400 list for signs of life in VARPG
is a bit like placing your ear by the feet of a sleeping person and
pronouncing them dead because you can't hear their heartbeat!
