Does anyone have any 'official' breakdown for the % of sites developing in COBOL
and % of sites in RPG. I have always heard 25% COBOL/ 75% RPG but I also heard
recently 10/90 and then again I was also told that in N.America COBOL is the
predominant langauge. However I also heard that IBM are to withdraw support for
COBOL compilers.

Any opinions (official or hearsay) gratefully received,

Thanks

Chris
