COBOL legacy systems in finance and government are somewhat of a meme. However, I've never actually met a single person who's day job is to maintain one. I'd be curious to learn what systems are you working on?

Rewriting things in Java? Or maybe running Cobol in the cloud directly? A mainframe has a number of properties of the cloud, in a sense.

Ask HN: Any active COBOL devs here? What are you working on?
