As some one who has modernized these apps: screw you guys. That stuff is dying and deserves to die. Yeah, good developers can do elegant things wit it, but for the remaining 90%, well they create layered spaghetti: xsl, html, JavaScript, and that's just the front end. Back end is xml and xsl pipelines with Java/c# intermixed. I've seen business logic in all these layers, in the same api call. It is truly astounding.
