Dear Distribution lists, As I am writing this note I am thinking about the VMS community and how special it is. Have you given a thought about it lately. Lets just pick one area to brag about today. Openvms.org, we are so fortunate to have a place where the community can go for un-biased news, information and vendor information. Ken Farmer does a great job and has done so for a number of years. And what about Marty with the audio cast, Marty used to be in radio and now uses his professional talent to help us. He does that because he cares about VMS and about the community he has done that as a volunteer. Ken and Marty have pulled together other speakers for the audio casts and I know that Hoff, Colin, Bruce, Steve (T4) and of course Guy have all had sessions. Anyone can participate that wants to, that means you reading this message. It just takes a willing spirit, everyone has something to offer that includes a thank you note to people that make our life better and easier. To the folks that work so hard for the OpenVMS Community at OpenVMS.Org, thank you for the work you do every day supporting us. This OpenVMS Update has a huge amount of information, partner product releases, 3 jobs and enough information to keep you reading for awhile. A few reminders, this is not an official newsletter its just a friendly email. I do not have anything to do with hiring anyone in any company. Please do not post jobs with email addresses. Have a great weekend and thank you for everything you do.

Customers can increase productivity with HP OpenVMS and eCube's NXTware Eclipse "eCube is the first and only company to bring Eclipse to HP OpenVMS," said Kevin Barnes, eCube Systems' CEO.

Under the subscription, eCube will regularly test and certify third-party plug-ins for use on OpenVMS. NXTware Eclipse will be available later this month.

The MCOECN represents the 23 Data Acquisition (DA) Sites of the Ohio Education Computer Network that are part of the Ohio Department of Education. One of the missions of the MCOECN is to bring the benefits of mass purchasing power with technology vendors to the DA Sites. This allows the DA Sites to purchase equipment and software at large "group rates", saving school districts substantial money. â01CBefore choosing JAMS, we carefully evaluated and reviewed the enterprise-class job schedulers on the market,â01D said Duane Baker, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for the MCOECN. â01CWe narrowed our search to two alternatives and ultimately selected JAMS for its flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and low overhead. Upon deployment, the DASL application and JAMS will be utilized in 500-700 school districts which are supported by the DA sitesâ01D, continued Baker. The MCOECN will be utilizing JAMS OpenVMS with DASL to complete database updates for student administration, school bus routing, national and criterion-referenced test scoring, learning/curriculum management systems, spreadsheet, and library automation services. Each DA site will also have the option to implement a Windows solution that will include JAMS .NET. Initially 18 data centers will be using JAMS to provide job scheduling capabilities in conjunction with the DASL or other applications. â01CEarly in the sales cycle it became very apparent that the MCOECN required a solution that included both OpenVMS and .NET. We knew that JAMS was one of a handful of applications that could meet this criteria and are very pleased that JAMS was ultimately chosen to support such an important undertakingâ01D, commented Scott McCausland, Vice President at MVP Systems.
