Dear VMS Community,
First please forgive me if this is a duplicate email , it
seems that sending to a large distribution list is not acceptable and I must
break my distribution list up into many parts. So I have combined the last two
emails I have sent (today) into one.
What is great is that I get to apologize for the size of the
email already ;’). Has everyone seen that the DEC 50th Anniversary
is in September visit www.decedout.org/events for more
information.
With warm regards as always

Dear VMS Community,
I wanted to share this invitation and wonderful news with
you. OpenVMS has two honorable mentions in humanitarian space. Not only is
OpenVMS an outstanding Operating system but it makes the world a better place.
Brandon has asked that you mention my name in case there is an overwhelming
response.
Warm Regards,
Sue

Dear VMS Community,
I miss you all very much and I hope you are well, if you have
a minute could you just send me an email letting me know how you are
doing
If you are a VMS Partner with a product, I have an idea for
you. I am doing a small project, if you would like to be involved in a short
interview please let me know, this will take about ½ an hour of your time. This
is not sales pitch but informing the community about your cool products, that
help the VMS customers and VMS overall. At this time I am not doing consulting
services for this interview series.
As you know I was very sorry to leave HP and the VMS group,
but I found another wonderful job with a VMS partner called eCube Systems. They
are based in Texas, with offices in Montreal and Boston, their web site is www.ecubesystems.com Make sure you check
out the HPTF 2009 video which is on the eCube Systems home page.
I find that they are very similar to DEC and really have a
“Customer First” attitude as do most of the OpenVMS Community. I find that I
get to talk to more of our partners and this attitude becomes more obvious
everyday to me.
I have a trip planned with the President of the company in
September to Europe, I would love to see as many folks as possible, please let
me know if you are available. Also if I promised to bring you anything to this
year’s TUD please send me a reminder note, with all that has happened I may have
forgotten.
Amanda starts her last year of school in September and she
asks me to send her regards as well.
Now that I am no longer with HP I find that the
communications from Connect and OpenVMS.org are very important, we really need
to say thank you to the folks that make that happen.
Warm Regards as always,
Sue Skonetski
