Re: Decaf

[Ted Barry <TBARRY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like to retire from being an RPG programmer in 14 years.  I work at a
District (Gov't job) and the benefits are really good, so I'll be able to retire
at 52.  I think we should rename RPG to RET14 for Retirement in 14.  Most
of the older RPGer's out there will be ready for retirement then anyway. 
;-)

I think RPG needs a new name.  I mean think of it.  Report Program
Generator?   What do people think when they find out what RPG stands
for?
"Oh so it's only good for reports."

We need a name that's more meaningful.   Java is already taken.  Tea is
too
weak.

If we take some letters from the RPG and DDS specs we could come up
with a
new name.

Decaf!  It has a nice ring to it.  And it won't keep you up at night!  <g>

The logo would be a glass coffee caraf with an orange handle
superimposed
on a C-spec. <gg>

Any suggestions?
