>Have you heard about the 40th Year Anniversary of COBOL Celebration? On January 21, 2000 in San Diego, California a gathering of CIOs, CEOs, software programmers, technologists, military specialists, educators, students, consultants, and journalists, will celebrate the 40th year anniversary of COBOL, the world's most successful programming language.
>
>Fujitsu COBOL, in conjunction with Acucorp, Merant, Computerworld and the COBOL Alliance, is sponsoring a celebration to mark this important milestone. On January 21, two key events will be held: Software Technology Summit 2000, and the Grace Murray Hopper Commemorative Ceremony (to be held alongside the USS Hopper on Navy Pier).
>
>The Software Technology Summit is a town hall meeting featuring several of the country's top business and technology leaders representing corporate, military, and educational interests. Featured topics include many of today's most pressing business and technology issues, including application extension, the emergence of portable devices, and the shortage of American IT workers.
>
>Later in the day, the Grace Murray Hopper Commemorative Ceremony will take place alongside the USS Hopper, a multi-mission AEGIS guided missile destroyer. This modern-day warship was named in honor of COBOL's inventor, Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper. An award ceremony will be followed by a VIP reception, and tours of the USS Hopper.

>Fujitsu COBOL Joins the COBOL Alliance

>Fujitsu Software Corporation is also pleased to announce that Fujitsu COBOL has recently joined the COBOL Alliance. The COBOL Alliance is a newly formed coalition of organizations with a vested interest in COBOL. Any organization is welcome to become a listed member of the COBOL Alliance. These organizations will represent the general framework of the coalition. Sponsoring members are the power players in the COBOL and their funds will support the ongoing efforts of the Alliance.
