> there are still new 'exciting' things happening in the COBOL space.

Out of interest, does anyone know if new COBOL specs add any major language features or are they just low-profile security fixes and things.

I know they added an object oriented extension to the language a few years ago that was rather controversial.

Adding threading support some years ago was pretty major. JSON API support was added to CICS/COBOL in 2014-ish.
