The more modern languages supported on z/OS the better. Otherwise it
will just be viewed as a legacy platform and will slowly wither on vine.
You may find it
uninteresting but if we want to attract young people to the platform
it's going to need something a little bit more contemporary then COBOL,
HLASM and PL/1.
We're interested in Golang as important analytics stacks like
Prometheus/Grafana are written in the language. Not to mentioned Docker
and Hyperledger!

Well I downloaded, ran some code. Yawn. What's an old guy to do?
Last three "needed now" jobs were, COBOL, Assembler and PL/I.
go West!
