However instead of going through the APAR process. Write a publication request. Each book should have in it (usually at the end). I know over the years I have gotten better reponse (more useful) than an APAR. Way back when the Boulder people absolutely promised to address each pub change request. I believe over the years the have mostly honored their promise. Of course that was before the OE people came along and broke every IBM rule in the world. But for non OE issues it probably quicker using a pub change. I think there is less internal fighting over doc changes than APARchanges. There are some exceptions (notably OE) but almost all other are reasonably good. Although it is far and few in between there have been code changes as a result of pub changes. BTW these code changes are NOT quick in coming (so do not hold your breath). Pub changes are usually the fastest, IMO.
