I worked as a PL/1 Applications Programmer at State Farm Systems for 13 years using IMS Databases and of course JCL on the IBM MVS Operating System. Then I worked with the same skills at Nielsen Media Research in Florida for a few years. I have nothing technical to add to these discussions yet, but hope to in the future. I am retired and in great health and hoping I can do contract work once I become proficient in Python and the current various developer tools for editing and testing platforms. > Looking forward to learning Python and it's associated tools. > John Quinn FYI, these days, most of Python discussion takes place at https://discuss.python.org/.
