Hi Dave,
---------------SNIP------------------------

I am against having any vendors library in the linklist (unless it MUST be).

I would rather have people steplib to a dataset that contains the current 
version. Yes it may be extra work on the security side but if you have good 
conventions for names it does work well.

The main reason is that I have run into vendors that use the same module name 
and it causes too much loss time trying to figure out what is going on. Nowdays 
it isn't too much of an issue but I have seen it occur. It would be great if 
vendors would agree on prefix's for module name but there is little chance of 
their even willing to agree to anything. 

My mind is blank at the moment as to which vendors I have run into with but it 
does occur.

Ed
