[comp.software-eng] IBM CASE

Hi,
IBM made an announcement in yesterday's WSJ on their new CASE framework
"something called a repository".  It apparently runs only on IBM mainframes
and compatible environments.  Does anyone know more about what was
announced by IBM?  Is it a configuration management system of some
sorts?  Thanks,

It must be called a repository since anything on IBM mainframes is meant
to be kept forever but never used, since the people who need it won't be
allowed access to it.  Not a very healthy way to build a CASE
environment but an extremely apt naming.

Wow.  First SAA and now this.  How does IBM keep it up?

Isn't it interesting that the first thing you do with your
color bitmapped window system on a network is emulate an ASR33?
