The trick is (especially for in-house apps) to only modernize those
that have the best bang for your buck.

We hear quite a bit of that. But with respect to K-12 public school districts, we also hear quite a bit of wholesale migration off the platform as they give up on 25-30 year old systems in favor of next generation offerings from new vendors. I feel bad about that. We're doing our best to develop new IBM i systems, and making good progress, but it still takes time.

I was hoping that Henrik would weight back in on this, since he raised the question in the first place.
