Renaming RPG

I was just thinking that maybe RPG (Report Program Generator) should be
renamed. . .

Not that we need one more name change within IBM, but in reality most of the
name changes that have happened were because the initial name didn't
adequately describe what the product was or the product was named
prematurely.  Maybe the acronymn just needs to be changed to include more
buzz word's -- Reliable, Progressive, Guaranteed.

I don't know when RPG first came about, but I am guessing that todays RPG is
a far cry from where it started.  Maybe when they allow us to create our own
data types they can name it Rava (instead of Java;-).

Just thinking out loud,
Aaron Bartell
