I talked with Brian Grainger about it just a little back in June, but he didn't seem overly optimistic, either. And I haven't heard from Len in ages. Jesse Knight was my best COMAL contact close to home, but he is doing C and assembler on the Amiga and has dropped the COMAL, so far as I know. I still think it is an awfully neat language, especially for teaching kids to program. Better than BASIC, easier than PASCAL or MODULA – and heaven forbid that we should start using C for the little kids! Hope COMAL comes through.
