I manage a GUIDE (The IBM Mainframe Users Group) project on
Object-Oriented Requirements Analysis, and IBM Repository Requirements
for Object-Oriented Development.  The project has over 50 members
representing many of the Fortune 100.  The question keeps coming back to
me as to who is doing Object-Oriented Requirements, or Design, or
Development, or anything, on Commercial Business Applications like
insurance processing, or banking, or accounting.  I would be most
interested in any Fortune 500 companies who are utilizing OO for what
GUIDE considers 'normal' business applications.

Secondly, has anyone seen the CODASYL drafts for Object-Oriented COBOL
by Micro-FOCUS, Hewlett Packard, and Realia?  I would be interested in
your comments.
