Yes, JPI is definitely still in business.  It seems that the mere fact that
JPI moved it's US office from the US west coast, to East in US, is ground
enough to get this rumour around.

JPI and Clarion is working on a merger.  If the original poster didn't 
associate Clarion with compilers, that's his loss.  Clarion is a very
popular (over here anyhow) 4th generation database application
generator.  The merger with JPI means that Clarion will be using
the JPI code generator and optimizer, and that you will be able to 
interface between the TopSpeed compilers and Clarion in a simple
way.
