I have no plans to migrate to Windows. The jt400.jar package allows you to remotely connect to the IBM i (e.g., work with DB2 files, call CL programs, use the IBM i FTP server). The jt400.jar package isn't very helpful unless you have an IBM i running. Just looking for something similar for JS and Node. :)
Thanks,

Dear IBM,
Java developers need a package that lets them remotely connect to the IBM
i (jt400.jar), but Node developers don't?
I can't speak for IBM. After their experience with with Java, maybe they
concluded that it didn't pay to help people migrate workloads to Windows. I
simply offer that as a possibility. I really don't know what IBM may be
thinking.
How would you feel about running Node.js in PASE or on IBM's Bluemix cloud
service?
