IBM Bob Premium Package for i released

Today the first significant update for IBM Bob, the AI-development tool for IBM i has been released.

It is called IBM Bob Premium Package for i

You can read the announcement, that gives you all the details on the new features, here.

There is also an Overview page, that includes the link to download it, here.

You do have to be using IBM Bob 2.0.0 to use IBM Bob Premium Package for i.

After the first paragraph in the Overview document is a button to "Copy Markdown". I strongly recommend you do. I clicked the button and then pasted what was copied into Notepad. The markdown contains all kinds of useful information to successfully install the new version.

Within markdown are some paths to further documentation. As paths do not include the domain I have for your convenience done so below:
