The original post was a joke following on from another thread where a
misunderstanding took place and a list member got the impression that i5/OS
support was being dropped - for the sake of clarity it isn't.

Subject: Re: IBM DROPS SUPPORT FOR RPGII COMPILER

Whomever started the post should have labelled it
RPG II
I have not read any formal announcement, but at Common the
general consensus was the PRPQ would be "in the thousands.."
I think RPG38 (if not already gone) is surely not continueing.
The alternative to the PRPQ is to keep a development box at
an older release, but that only buys you a little more time.
