Paul,
To take this one step further, maybe we could make this a college project with several colleges involved. Most computer studies students learn HTML5, JavaScript/jQuery, and other client-side web technologies. It would take very little to introduce the server-side request for JSON data. I teach two Web Technology courses and the RPG part to handle the HTTP requests is a very small component of one of the courses.

Michael/all,
I'm sure you get a lot of responses. Development tools/technologies is
being debated heavy on other groups concurrently as well.
I propose the following, you or some neutral 3rd party, supply a
"requirements spec" for your IBM i web application needs. The spec
should be somewhat representative of a typical IBM i shop. The spec
also includes some "sample" data in a save file.
You let vendors or other approaches create solutions against your spec
and sample data. This would provide a huge service to the ENTIRE i
community by being able to compare/contrast solutions.
