meetings different from a traditional ones? What it is

Deadline: 8:00 PM EST - 14 August
Query:
The trouble various state governments have had reprogramming
their unemployment systems revealed one of IT's dirty secrets:
there is still a lot of business-critical code running on COBOL
out there. While not a lot of new COBOL code is being written,
what applications are out there are probably lingering for
years, and the generation that learned COBOL in school or on the
job is rapidly retiring or passing on.
I'm looking for people who have had to deal with COBOL code in
their day-to-day work, or have worked on transition projects,
for their opinions on how we can keep necessary skills in the
pipeline. Should young programmers be learning COBOL -- and if
so, when and how? Is it a lanaguage that should be in everyone's
toolkit, or are specialized consultancies the answer?
Requirements:
I am not interested in people pushing particular products or
services, though if you work on a team or for a company that
focuses on COBOL in some way I would like talk to you about it
for sure.
