The PUL is still 8.3, which is about five years old.

Since 8.3 came out, these versions have been released:

8.3.1
8.3.2
9.0.0
9.0.1
9.1.0
9.1.1

So the PUL program is SIX VERSIONS OLD.  My understanding of Cincom's
support model, is that once 9.2 is released next Spring, the 8.3 series
will go out of support.  It should be obvious to anyone who is looking at
this, that the PUL program is either dead, or close to it.  Either way, PUL
is not a priority for them any more.  "If you want to try VW, you can use
this soon to be unsupported version that's five years old.  You can't have
anything newer than that."  Can you imagine ANY software company saying
that?  Five years is an eternity in the software field.
