   Is that what used to be called a SPR ? :-)   
      
   Doing a:   
      
   	site:vmssoftware.com "System improvement request"   
      
   in duckduckgo does not show anything however.   
      
   Doing a:   
      
   	site:vmssoftware.com "software performance report"   
      
   in duckduckgo shows multiple SPR references, but it appears to only be   
   in the documentation, not within VSI-generated material. For example, in:   
      
   https://docs.vmssoftware.com/docs/OpenVMS-system-messages-and-re   
   overy-procedures-reference-manual-m-z.pdf   
      
   in section 1.5.4, you are told to file a SPR with Digital. :-)   
      
   BTW, I looked up the Whois information for vmssoftware.com (I was curious)   
   and found it was registered on 2008-12-27. I wonder how long they had been   
   planning to setup VSI ?   
      
   Also, I am not convinced that saying "OpenVMS V9.2-3 is available and   
   running on over 200 servers worldwide and the Cloud." on their homepage   
   gives the message you expect it to. If that's true, then the VMS user base   
   appears to have finally undergone a massive reduction.
