Carey\Axton,

Sorry about all the hoops that folks had to go thru to download
utilities\libraries etc. David Easter (PM) mentioned in one of the mails
that new Dev Community site is in the works and that'll hopefully solve
these issues once and for all.

About support for the plug-in and open sourcing the code: Releasing it
in the open source and\or support by BMC are being discussed internally
and 'll know more soon. Meanwhile, I am hoping to get feedback and
refine it further. 

Hope that helps...
Maruthi

Maruthi,

After fighting with the developer community web site a bit I was able to
get to the downloads. ( Maybe there is some issue with Java v6 on the
client? I do not remember having theses issues in previous visits to the
community web site, and I noticed that the v6 Applet "thingy"[technical
term] had to update itself before the site would display. )

Anyway...

According to the M$ word FeedsandARSystem.doc documentation for this DFV
this plugin is not going to be supported by BMC. Is it possible to get
the source code published to the Developer Community? I would think that
it would be a very small set of companies that would use a "closed
source and unsupported" feature as part of any business practice that
they are going to rely on.

IMHO, BMC needs to either support things like this, or release the code
so that others can review/verify and then maybe even support it for BMC.
