Is it classic enough to ask about on this list?

The department of motor vehicle defines "classic" as a vehicle at least
25 years old. I strongly suspect that RPG is at least 25 years old.
A friend of mine finds himself in the awkward position
of being asked
to take on some RPG programming, but knows nothing about it.
Is this an AS/400 / iSeries / IBM i environment? That's about the only
place that I see (any version of) RPG being used.
Can anyone here suggest some good resources for a
crash course in RPG?
I've found the people in the comp.sys.ibm.as400.misc newsgroup to be
friendly. Given the AS/400 nature of RPG, I suspect that there are
multiple people there which can help.
Yes, any web search engine will throw up a lot of
hits, but I'm hoping
someone here can help select the most useful ones.
You will likely have a lot of collisions, with role playing games. I'd
suggest that you include "IBM" in the search string.
You can probably find a number of tutorials online and / or books at the
various second hand for sale sites.
I just fear that there's going to be a LOT more noise to signal for this.
