Ublu Midrange and Mainframe Life Cycle Extension Language

Jack Woehr has published an open source language wrapped around JTOpen and some other APIs.
He's been using it for 3 years now to write i Series OS systems programming stuff on Java on Linux/Win/Mac for support people who don't green-screen.
It also supports z/VM SMAPI for z mainframes.
All you need is the JDK (1.7 and above ... maybe 1.6) and Apache Ant to build it.
The docs are kinda terse. Jack will write more if the community finds Ublu as useful as he has found it to be.
