I'd agree Progress is no longer viable.
The demands for meeting governmental regulations (auditing and security)
plus the ability of organizations to find competent internal and
external resources mitigates against use of any RDBMS other than the top
4 or 5. If you can't get the staffing you need and the phone/web support
you need no organization is going to be happy in the long run.
Take a serious look at the toolset for recovering from media failure or
corruption. Progress isn't in the running.
