Mike, please, please, PLEASE ask the powers that be in your company to
contact someone about this business decision.  I for one would be
perfectly happy to just chat with them about the reasons for staying
with RPG as opposed to rewriting everything in Java.

Aaron's company is currently implementing a Java interface to their
business logic, as are other companies.  They are finding it far more
productive to leverage their existing code rather than trying to rewrite
the entire system from scratch.

Please, let your bosses know there are alternatives!
