Subject: VMS boots on Itanium

We are pleased to announce that OpenVMS has booted on an HP i2000 Itanium system. By successfully executing a DIRECTORY command the official date and time for the Boot Contest is January 31, 2003 3:31 PM EST.

Many, many people have contributed to this effort, including managers, supervisors, project leaders, consultants, development infrastructure group, calling standard committee, engineers working on post-boot projects, etc. All will receive their well-deserved credit as we proceed. The following is a very specific set of people; these are the engineers who designed/wrote/debugged the code that comprises the running operating system.
