I'm fascinated by the interest (outside of places where COBOL is used day-to-day) COBOL these days. I learned VAX COBOL at college in the 80's and was fairly proficient with it, and dabbled around with DG COBOL afterwards whilst in paid employment, but moved on to PC development (C, dBase, Clipper etc).

As an aside I feel they missed the chance at a better name: "CobWeb".



I move that the name be changed to CobWeb immediately.


Yes, we are renaming it. That's a great suggestion. So sad we didn't think of it.



Well that's a first for me, ever. Do I get a contributor mention for the new name ;)


Drop me an email (jgc @ cloudflare)


Ohhhh! That’s great. I can maybe help make that happen.
