Your history is accurate, but there���s a few things I���d�� like to add, due to having been employed by IBM at exactly that period working specifically on VisualAge, not only for Smalltalk, but for Java, C++ and Cobol as well.�� (my NDA���s finally having expired also helps ����).�� It���s not a correction or contradiction, but a complement to your description, providing a relevant but different perspective.
