Short answer:  HP C++ 2.1 *shipments* will be coming 'real soon now'.

HPC++ version 2.1 was *announced* in October 1990 for both S300 and S800.
It is based on ATT cfront 2.1 technology and also has all of the standard
HP added-value such as the unparalleled symbolic debug support for cfront
C++ object-oriented features, C++ header files for HP-UX/X11/Motif, etc.
Ordering data is available at the end of this posting.

In addition, for S800, HPC++ 2.1 is a 'true compiler' so compile-time
performance is much improved.  This is another first for a ATT cfront
C++ implementation.  The S300 HPC++ 2.1 will still be a 'translator'
in this shipment.  The next 2.1 HPC++ release (as soon as possible) will
of course include 'true compilers' for both S300 and S800.  A translator
mode is still available in the HPC++ compiler using a compile-time flag.

HPC++ 2.1 for S300 and S800 has already been handed off to software
manufacturing.  I would expect *shipments* on schedule in February.
