RE: ILE vs CLI. was V5R3

["Booth Martin" <Booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This isn't clear to me.  CLI now does what ILE has been doing for 5+ years? 
What does CLI do that ILE doesn't already do?  Is CLI open source, available
for all platforms?

If Mono ran on the iSeries, with presumably C# as a part of it, that would
be outstanding! But the whole point of CLI ( common language integration )
is that languages like RPG, C#, C++ and Java can be integrated together (
kind of like school busing integrates the races ). So there would have to
be a CLI compliant version of RPG. And to do that, the collective IBM Man
who is keeping RPG down has to be whacked.
