I "like" those b.rds to name some pure commercial products starting with
"Open".
Did anybody had an idea to patent/trademark the word "Open" for opensource
community ?
i.e. if some product name is started from "Open" they should provide all
souces under GPL or something like that :-)))

Really the question is if anybody knows opensource SQL precompiler for Cobol
(even not finished / non-working, even just parser) ?
I have my own but I'm afraid to publish it because it's garbage. It's very
limited, I'm not parsing SQL statements, indicator variables never been
implemented etc. I took a look at mysql/postgres ESQL but it's tied to C/C++
recognizing C/C++ datatypes in parser so it's not easy to take it as a
"base"...

Look at Firebird.  I looked at older version and it contained
embedded SQL precompiler for 6 different languages including Cobol.
