*>the server-side language is RPGLE*

And this is one of the reasons I've moved on from using RPG as a website
language - you have to go through all the motions of creating things like
this from scratch. And then even after you've developed it (at
considerable expense to your company) you have to maintain it and fix bugs
yourself.

I don't say this to ruffle feathers and instead hope to help others come to
the same conclusion I have after many years of beating the "RPG can do
anything" drum. Sure it can. But at what cost? We're not only talking
cost of development but cost of lost business opportunity because it took
so long to procure the technology/online-offering.

Going with an open source language has risks. Keeping with RPG for web has
more risks (my opinion).
