the end result of this approach is IBM mgmt is not held accountable. I
would like to participate in iSociety chats and ask what the language
strategy of IBM is. Will programmers be able to reuse PHP code in an
RPG program? Will CL be  enhanced to work better with SQL procedures?
What is IBM's competitive answer to VS2010?  But the chat gatekeeper
will not let my questions thru, and the IBM exec is allowed to leave
before followup questions can be asked.
