Heather Goudey states:


     HP 3000 Customers

     The following statement is how we've described support for CM
     products.

     **MPE/iX Compatibility Mode Software Subsystem Support**
     HP will provide ongoing support for those compatibility mode (CM)
     products used on MPE/iX systems that do not have equivalent native
     mode replacements.  However, for CM products used on MPE/iX
systems
     that have equivalent native mode replacements, support will end on
     September 1, 1998.

     Now let me clarify with some examples:

          Category A products have no customers on support.  Because no
support
     customers will be impacted, support will end August 1, 1997.

     Category B includes all products whose support will end September
1,
     1998.  This category includes the MPE/V operating system,
MPE/V-only
     products and those CM products that HAVE EQUIVALENT NM
counterparts.
      Products like Edit/V and NS/3000 V have equivalent NM counterparts
                           ^^^^^^
   so will therefore have support end on September 1, 1998.

Uh, when did we get the native mode version of Editor, I seem to have
only the CM version.  Perhaps you mean the product HPEDIT/V
