[NCLUG] COBOL Compiler for Linux?

[Rick Ross]

I assume they're concerned about processing overhead, compiled code speed,
overall efficiency. I did ask the same question, but was working from home
on Friday, so won't get an answer until Monday. We're looking at moving
30-year-old, incrementally updated over those 30 years, *n*-lines of
spaghetti code from a government IBM 370 mainframe to a Linux server. Fun,
huh?
