I was thinking of it as a replacement for RDi. Of course, I wasn't thinking about the license revenue from RDi. Can VS Code extensions be licensed and sold?

There's no way to register a negative vote or I would have voted for it.

To expect IBM to do extra work to compete with their own product (RDi)
is just wishful thinking.

More to the point - the requestor points out that there are already
options that work very well with VS Code (I'm using a couple myself) -
so why do we need one from IBM.

I'm a huge supporter of RDi but I LOVE competition - I want as many
non-IBM options out there as possible because it may help to finally
wake up this who still think SEU is an acceptable way to develop
today's RPG apps.
