As a result, RexxLA will continue to manage Object Rexx as an Open Source project, and IBM will be withdrawing Object Rexx from their product range. See IBM announcement: http://www-306.ibm.com/common/ssi/OIX.wss?DocURL=http://d03xhttpcl001g.boulder.ibm.com/common/ssi/rep_ca/7/897/ENUS904-207/index.html&InfoType=AN&InfoSubType=CA&InfoDesc=Announcement+Letters&panelurl=&paneltext= "The REXX Language Association is delighted that IBM is contributing Object REXX to the open source community," said Chip Davis, President of RexxLA. "We are targeting the first release of Open Object REXX for early 2005 and are enthusiastic about the opportunities to introduce an ever increasing community to the ease and power of programming in REXX." A more detailed announcement of the future of Open Object Rexx will be made shortly.
