Not true about SQL being slower access than RPG.   But the bigger
picture is if the platform is to compete seriously in the market place
against other DBMS platforms it is imperative those using legacy
programming languages (RPG, CL, etc.) move to using mainstream languages
(SQL for sure) and programming methodologies.   

Sincerely,

Explain the easier comment for accessing DB2 ?  CGIDEV uses native RPG
Database IO that in my opinion is faster and easier and gives you more
control that other methods like SQL.

I see PHP as a form of DDS-5250 replacement...
(yes, it is so much more...)  I see that PHP pushes
And pulls from the DB2 database so much easier than CGIDEV.
