Excuse me, but I was already entitled and in fact have a couple of

Fortunately, the 3270 interface still works (with utterly BORING

Part of agile programming is continuous testing as the product is
developed.  This seems more fragile than agile.  

Jon

Welcome to the wonderful world of the Web and agile programming! Why
waste money paying for testers? Just release the product and the buyers
will become your unpaid QA people. And, what is really nice, is that if
the buyer doesn't like it, what can they do? NOTHING! Because everybody
does it this way now.

Well, I finally got in, but most of the stuff returned Internal
error on the first try  Second tries got to the applications.

Now, if I can find the correct Upgrade Name for the PSP bucket for
Rational Developer for System z.  The name given in the Program
Directory (5724T07) returns not found..  Don't know if the PSP
application lost it, or the ProgDir is wrong...
