Re: RDi background color

[Robert Lee Hoehle <robert.hoehle@xxxxxxxxx>]

It's odd for me to come in as my second career (Development) and be a
younger one....  I'm (only?) 46 and most the people I learn from think I'm
young.  My development career (first career was in medicine, but drove me
nuts) is young, but I'm not.  Been developing for about 4 years (came from
the Java - .Net realm) and 1.5 of that is now in RPG/ILE.  I must say the
hardest thing for me to acquire is solid help modernizing the code bringing
code written in the 80's - 90's to the ILE/RPG-Free world.  It's like
learning 4 to 6 languages: OCL, CLP, CLLE, RPG II, RPG III, RPG
IV/ILE/Free.  But, I'm here to stay.  I just need to post more as there is
very little help around locally.
