RE: Application design & architecture

I think Booth was referring you to Joe Pluta's published works, more
than to his posts here.

|I have read all of Joe's posts (maybe not all but most), on the subject
|and I have to admit that at least 2 of his posts on this specific
|subject got me even more into the goal of finding a real world example
|of the concept. Such an exciting concept must have a real world RPG
|implementation and my post in here was an attempt to find such a "holy
|grail".

|I seem to remember Joe setting up a website to discuss various aspects
|of the iSeries (application design and performance, etc...), but
|unfortunately, I have lost the address of the site. So, Joe, if you
read
|this, please let me know how I can join the group you set-up.
