Pity you don't sell it or Open Source it. Powerful stuff.


We sell our web portal and developer toolkit. It's geared more for
organizations that want to do very broadly-scoped, new application
development on IBM i, say ERP class systems.

I've never been able to get a proper feel for the IBM i tools market. It
appears to me that IBM i shops fall into a few niches:

1. Maintain 5250 interfaces
2. Maintain the 5250 paradigm via screen scrapers and interfaces that
implement open-access handlers.
3. Casual, modest web development via CGIDEV2.
4. Migrate the UI to another platform and language environment (Java, PHP),
while retaining an IBM i database and modest stored procedure development.
