  • IBM i PTF Guide, Volume 23, Number 14

    April 12, 2021 Doug Bidwell

    Apologies to all in the IBM i community for being late for putting together the IBM i PTF Guide last week. Sometimes real life interferes with business life, as you all know well. So this is a catch up issue of the Guide, with everything back on track with an update to get current coming out in this Wednesday’s issue of The Four Hundred.

    Editor’s Note: It goes without saying that we all owe a big hearty thanks to Doug Bidwell for his tireless efforts over many decades in keeping track of the patches for the firmware, operating system, and system software for the OS/400 and IBM i platform. Super Doug, as he is known amongst many of his IBM i peers, is just that: A one-of-a-kind IBM i superhero.

    Now, back to our previously scheduled IBM i PTF Guide. . . .

    OCEAN Special Event: No fooling in April! Two excellent educational events you don’t want to miss.

    Friday, April 16 at 8:30 a.m. PT – SQL expert and IBM champion Birgitta Hauser will lead an enlightening half-day workshop on Advanced Embedded SQL. Please use this link for details and registration.

    Tuesday, April 20 at 6:00 p.m. PT – IBM’s lead RPG compiler developer Barbara Morris will review What’s New for RPG. Please see this link for details and registration.

    OCEAN MEMBERS: If you missed Birgitta Hauser’s JSON and SQL workshop, you can now access the recording and the handout through April 18, 2021. You can do that at this link here.
