>> And consider that even when IBM does take a stand, and their customers
disagree, then IBM has a history of getting back in-line (remember the RPG
flipping burgers fiasco).

I agree with your general sentiment - but nothing changed after the burger
flipping thing (apart from the fact that no more ads of that kind were run -
in fact we almost got to it in time to stop it ever running).  RPG is still
(other than in what Toronto does) a second or third class citizen.
Rochester still do nothing to encourage BPs like JDE to move to the new
version of the language.  It's still Java, Java, Java .... and you _still_
can't find any bloody RPG examples in any of IBM's manuals!!
