Three more possible reasons for the appointment: 1. No quality sales exec from the outside was interested in the position. 2. He was available, making a press release possible 3. No increase to their salary base...ie he's already on salary.

Bob, More on CA. (I believe someone posted this link earlier.) >>...''Even though the other tools claimed to be 'automated,' they still required considerable manual intervention to accomplish the remediation. The CA-Fix/2000 fix process was completely automated...[snip]...''We definitely did not want to move our source off the mainframe for Year 2000 conversion, as many other COBOL remediation tools require,'' said Tretina... << MD requires taking the source code off the mainframe, and a lot of "prepping" of code before processing.
