And as far as I can tell no-one knows how to contact Roger. (see my recent note on this topic)

Here is the linkt to your original post and my answer. I'd like to tell you that there is a new public release, but I can't.

The last release was published feb-09 and you can download it from the downloads area (ignore the 2007 title, after downloading you see the correct date in the tarball).

But as I wrote before, the error you posted in 2009 (with
good samples) was fixed a long time ago. You MAY want to check builds from an unofficial version (not supported at all and could be risky if used for production). Sergey uploaded some at http://www.kiska.net/opencobol/1.1/, you can have a look if there is a binary that matches your system(s) and if yes, can try if the problem is fixed there.

The only one knowing when OpenCOBOL 2.0 sees the public light is Roger...

Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find it in the documentation or FAQ.

Back in 2008/2009 I was looking at a conversion of a software product to OpenCOBOL from Server Express.

Quite a big project, in the region of 90 million source lines, 6000 source members.

Anyway I reported some problems through the mailing list (can't find them now), probably in late 2008 or early 2009 primarily to do with the handling of nested sub programs in OpenCOBOL.

There was an issue with nested sub program naming, where the incorrect nested sub was being called, and big problems with GLOBAL storage in nested subs.

Indications were at the time that these would be fixed, but the only downloads I can find for OC are from 2007, so this isn't going to contain any fixes for these.

Is there a place I can get the latest source from? I seem to remember way back in the distant that I had some URL or other to get a tarball from somewhere else (Roger's server?), but I can't remember where that was either now!

Interest is re-starting in this project again now, but it's going to be a none starter if these issues remain unresovled.

Thanks!

(edit)

I realise I last asked this question 9 months ago, so I guess nothing has changed.

The reply was back then that my problem reports are fixed, but that I can't have the source. And I imagine that's still the case. Hope not. Please :)
