Re: [EXTERNAL] IBM Rational Developer for i 9.8.0.1 fixpack is now available!

Hi Eddie


I don't that anyone should try to kill Rdi. There's a place for both RDi
and Code for i, which is also very cool.


Fortra now develops RDi - IBM do have others do the development at times,
but the support is IBM. Another example is BRMS, they contract that out, as
well, and support again is IBM.


Mike Hockings, who is at IBM and supports RDi, gave us the best approach
in a post here today, I believe. Basically it is to use the Install New
Software option.


Regards
Vern

I thought it was outsourced to Fortra also. The software is downloaded
from an IBM site and when I go for help, it's always through IBM, and I get
responses from an IBM team. IMHO, I think they're trying to kill off RDi in
favor of Code for I. Once I can get all the plugins I have on RDi, I'm
switching.

Does IBM still do development on RDi? I was thinking this was

outsourced to HCL.

I think Fortra ( previously named HelpSystems ) are the ones running the
development since some years back.
