In the end I want to create something that keeps people on the IBM i using aI don't want to get into language was, either, but what's wrong with EGL
framework that is more simple to use than the others I have used in other
environments (i.e. JSF, PHP). This year I have heard of many shops leaving
the IBM i because they don't have a reality based modernization path -
everything out there leads them away from the IBMi: EGL, Java, PHP, .NET. I
am not looking to start a language war, but instead see what we can create
as a community that is fully intentioned to keep RPG programmers in RPG -
giving shops the most ROI. But the key is that the framework needs to be
open source and free (free as in beer and I need to see if GPL v3 works for
free as in "usage liberty" concerning ISV needs). I was hoping Niels from
IceBreak would have an update on that framework becoming open sourced
because that would negate my efforts, but I haven't been able to turn
anything up in my searches that it was in fact open sourced (last
collaborations on midrange lists is from late 2008).
