Perhaps RPG is just evolving... and IBM wants to come up with a slick new name
for the language, so that we can shed the legacy image that IT has of RPG.

Subject: RPG is Dead? Say it aint so!


Just heard at my local user group that at Common, "top IBMers" had told a
"vocal proponent of RPG" when asked when we would be getting major enhancements
like direct GUI and WEB ability, that IBM was no longer enhancing RPG and that
all future development is going to other "newer" languages.

Please, say it aint so!

Thanks,
