Re: Development Help for RDi ?

As you have seen in recent press releases the IBM team is joining forces
with HelpSystems to further the development and roadmap of RDi. The IBM
team is still here and very excited about this new partnership. The
HelpSystems team is very engaged and we are looking forward to making RDi
even stronger in the upcoming years. RDi is still an IBM product: you
will not see any changes to the product name, how you purchase and get
service for the product. Keep those RFEs coming and remember to vote for
those of utmost importance to your enterprise.

Interesting article:

https://www.itjungle.com/2017/08/07/ibm-gets-development-help/

EXTRACT - [. . In order to pick up the pace of IBM i development, Big
Blue has enlisted the support of HelpSystems, with the goal of
accelerating enhancements to Rational Developer for i, PowerHA System
Mirror for i, and Backup, Recovery and Media Services (BRMS) on i.
HelpSystems will take the product enhancement development lead, while
working with the existing team in Rochester. IBM will continue to
integrate and deliver these products into the IBM i operating system.

The transition is under way. Roadmaps are being discussed. IBM and
HelpSystems are building the infrastructure and environments required
for co-development.

“We’ve taken over the source code from IBM and we are creating dedicated
teams to accelerate the enhancements . . ]

Edmund, Eric, Mike et al - what does the future hold ??
