Re: RPG IV release levels and complexity

"_If_ IBM allowed the RPG team to PTF the service programs needed to support
old releases, everything else would be moot.  Why is that so hard to
understand?  If they can PTF to back releases then it doesn't matter what
release schedule they follow - you can use the compiler level you want and
target any release that the run-time supports."

This would be great, and you guys know more than I do about the feasability
of this. But I'd feel a little hypocrital asking for it. After all, as an
application developer I don't put new features in older releases. We'd go
broke trying to do so. But I'd love to see IBM do it.
