As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

LOL - this is maybe a distinction without a difference, since IBM are
making a strong point of using something in PASE instead of taking time
and personnel to write it in "native" IBM i.
We already have Java running there, and the C/C++ compiler, IIRC.
Add to that the 5733-OPS "product" offering - is that the licensed
product designation for the open source stuff?
I know you said "like", Nathan - still, it's not a Linux anything - and
it is an AIX environment, not a full-blown installation, as you know,
I'm sure.
There are no commands to run things in an AIX or Linux LPAR directly -
there are to run things in PASE.
Admittedly, all this does get kind of confusing. And I prefer that the
IBM i developers concentrate on what is more important, the native
stuff, rather than take time to port and rewrite everything else.
Of course, this is only my own opinion as to whether it is "IBM i" - IBM
seem to be thinking of PASE as part of IBM i.

Good point. PASE is more like running a second AIX/Linux partition on a
Power server. It's not really "IBM i". There are fundamental and relevant
distinctions
