Description Anton Kochkov 2019-05-27 13:33:11 UTC
Open Cobol was renamed into GNU COBOL a few years ago.

Moreover, latest stable version is available - 2.2:


OpenCOBOL 1.1 became GNU Cobol 1.1 in 2013.
GnuCOBOL 2.2 is the latest, version 3.0-rc1 is also available (seems much more stable than 2.2 itself, not to mention huge feature improvements).

Any updates on this one?

Because of the old name it is not even listed at https://repology.org/project/gnucobol/versions
