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.
Does that include Ambassadors and the community VMDK?
If it does, it means the quoted number is even worse. :-(
If anyone from VSI is reading this, could you have a word with your marketing people and get them to fix this ? A stagnant number from one month after launch is not what you want to be seeing 6 months later.
Also, please remind them that if they continue to publish a number there, it needs to be updated on a regular basis.
This all again reminds me of the Geman Tank Problem:
