Mark, Surely IBM had a sign up that said "Excuse us while we remodel to improve your Open Source Software Experience"?
I can't imagine IBM would do away with something that is designed to make ourt lives easier, now would they? ;-) Paul ================================================================== From: Mark Post <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> Subject: Yet Another IBM Conspiracy Theory Ok, now someone's stolen an entire Redbook, and all the Open Source tools that came with it (at least as far as _I_ can tell). Someone sent me an offlist email indicating that the "Open Source Software for z/OS and OS/390" Redbook has been made to disappear, as well as the software that it discusses. I checked the FTP server, and there was a readme.txt file there indicating that all the software had been moved to IBM's "UNIX Tools & Toys" web page, which was what I recalled had been done with it. When I went to that page, though, there was a notice that said "The Ported Tools section is being serviced and is not available at this time." Now, just what that means is unclear to me, but taken with the Redbook being missing, it's rather odd. Does anyone know how long the Ported Tools section has been down for "service?" Does anyone know where to find the official copy of the Redbook? Let the games begin. :) Mark Post ------------------------------------------------------------------------
