The list seems to be quite old - - - ie some projects are current as to
2014 (and they don't look like they are complete) and some of the
items appear to have been subsequently abandoned - - - it is a lot
of work keeping information source lists accurate and things do change
over time - - - even if slowly (grin!).

Now this I was not able to find anything on adablas - - - now for
adabas - - it was quite different.

Please advise as what you meant with the url.

This was one of the most promising sites except it seems like its been
at least sorta abandoned - - - there is noting since 2014 on the pages
and there isn't enough there to make it even somewhat straight forward
for the noob to start using things.

When it comes to PID control - - - my digging around (some time ago
but in the last year or so) it would seem that fortran just owns that corner
of the world and there is some really good information on setting up
such (like I thought seriously good information!!!).

Thanks for the assistance!!!
