hey all,

I'd like to start a short discussion about the Pros and Cons of the various
shareware and/or open source RPG-CGI development libraries and other
methodologies available.   Specifically, CGIDEV2, Scott Klement's HTTPAPI,
Brad Stone's eRPG, and any other CGI helper that might be out there.

I've done several small web projects using the IBM supplied apis, and I'm
familiar with most of the concepts, and for my next project, I'd like it to
be a mixture of net.data and RPG-CGI - but I want to make my job easier
this time around by using one or some of these products, but I don't have
time to play around with each to see which I like best.

What do these various packages do well?
What could they be better at?
How was the learning curve,
Do they play well with websphere, net.data, other iseries web technologies?
Where can you store your html source?  IFS?  Source files? either?  If IFS,
must you use the C functions to read them?

Thanks,

Rick
