Letter from my boss

[Jim Herrmann]

My company also uses VB for the front end, running DB2 stored procedures on 
the backend.  Does anyone know of a way to convert VB to some Linux based 
solution, or will VB apps work well under Wine?  I would like to be able to 
offer some alternative to the current architecture without causing them too 
much pain.  Ideas?

Thanks,
Jim
