Hi.
I'm an italian CS student with an interest in Operating Systems, and I just found out about the OpenVMS Hobbyist program. I think this is a rare opportunity for us to get to know how real OSes worked - and in this case still do :-)
That said, our local DECUS chapter has been dead for years, so I joined HP Connect at Guest-level membership about two weeks ago, but I still haven't got my membership number.
I also tried to contact them using their form but to no avail.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
TIA,
Matteo |

Connect have said they know there are issues with this but do keep chasing them.
Are you aware of this

I wasn't aware of that program, but unfortunately my university is really busy with post-earthquake recovery (I live in L'Aquila) so I doubt they are interested in a similar project at the moment.
Guess I'll just have to wait a little longer than I thought |
