> IMNSHO ILE is not for the masses but the chosen few.

I would be shocked if there are as many as 10 programmers on this list who
make extensive use of shared ODPs, much less named AGs.  Service programs,
probably more than 10 <grin> but it is clear that the adoption rate is very
slow.  That's why we go through this "why ILE?" discussion so often.  There
is great resistance to change in the midrange programming world.  Very
great.

>IMHO this would be like saying that DLL's are for the chosen few PC
programmers.

How many PC programmers are _consumers_ of DLLs and how many are
_producers_?  There are no commercially available iSeries service programs
that I know of.  Every new ILE programmer will have to learn how to write
service programs on their own.  This is a scary idea for people who are
clearly afraid of change.

Very respectfully,
Buck
