"It can be daunting to dive into this the first time"

And there's the rub...

As soon as I can get through this book I am working on I REALLY want to tackle two things:

Get some clear, concise, unambiguous, consolidated documentation on getting started with Open Source on IBM i by language and product. Not sure how, exactly, to organize and update it but the poor, dispersed documentation that is available for IBM i/PASE can kill the enthusiasm of first timers...

Dig into what is currently available to manage, deploy and install IBM i projects of all types and figure out a way to get it as close to drop dead simple as possible.

I am not the only one on this bandwagon so I look forward to some improvement and progress.....

Thanks Aaron


Yes, getting them to support Relic is the real plan.. but we still need
people to publish their projects too.


From n1, I found an extra 3 projects which I will work on contributing to
so I can add them to Relic.


Cheers,

Liam Allan

Wasn't sure if you were looking to get more packages available via RELIC (I
hope you are!), but there are a number of RPG tools on the Bitbucket open
source wiki(n1) that aren't on the RELIC supported packages page(n2). For
example, ILEUnit and RPGUnit.

Keep up the good work!
