RE: AS/400 as an http client

Denis, we're about to release our scriptable HTTP/EC client for the
AS/400 soon. If your needs are not too sophisticated (and they sound
simple) I could fix you up with a little function we have that should do
what you want. In exchange you can give me a little feedback. If you're
interested contact me offline.
