[ Bug lunch. ]

I'm looking for information on SAIL and/or MAINSAIL.

What I know (very little) about SAIL: ALGOL-based, designed to 
act as a host language for CODASYL, is based on the article in
the IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, & Cybernetics, April '79.
I would assume that there have been changes in the last 6 years.

Some basic questions:
	Are they related? If so, in what way?
	What is/was their focus? Has it changed?
	Are there any books available? 

Are there any users, gurus, etc., out there?
