At the same time, our "customers" on the business side, and IT leaders who are not particularly versed in Progress but very interested in Getting Stuff Done Now With All The Cool Toys, are pushing us to make architectural decisions that only make sense if we start the OpenEdge development part of those projects from scratch and deliver the solutions via PASOE as standalone "micro-services". This includes one project that is critical to achieving that Q3/Q4 date (replacing some ancient client software running on devices with an ancient, embedded, version of Java that can only talk to a 10.2B [or earlier] AppServer)!
