Can anyone point me towards sources of training
(courses, books, videos, etc.) which cater for
the needs of VMS programmers moving to Ultrix and
being asked to write POSIX-compliant code?

I know there's a book for VMS *users* who have to
deal with Unix, but I haven't seen anything that
deals with issues that a programmer should be
aware of.

Of course, we can send them on straight Unix
courses, but if there is material which deals
specifically with the migration from VMS, I'd
like to learn of it...

Email responses please, and if there is 
sufficient interest, I'll summarise to the net.

TIA,
