Well,
Around here anyway, if you're only an RPG programmer you are considered to
be obsolete. I've found now that you need to have a lot more skills than
RPG to survive in the IT world now. Java, dot Net, etc are beginning to
slowly replace the RPG programs that we love dearly. Our iSeries box(s)
are on the way out the door in the next 4 years give or take a year. And
it's been happening in a lot of the companies around here. Some are smart
though, keeping the iSeries as a DB server and creating new front ends for
processing.

Also, I hadn't realized there was a shortage of RPG programmers. Aside
from this list, I hear very few things about RPG anymore.
