Re: Redbooks / Redpapers for i

Hmmm, Adding >OR "IBM i"< to the existing query did not change my results,
but searching on that alone gave me more recent publications in the
results.  Thanks for the tip, Buck!

I'm not sure I'd refer to the "Modernizing..." redbook as an update to "Who
Knew..."  The RPG chapter in the former is about 30 pages in length, and
much lighter on code examples content.  Still, it's a good overall primer
for current technology on the i.
