I am still liking the hyper doc (or new classification like
installation?) type since it goes the SMP/e rout which
everyone knows about.

Some other sysprogs that I know don't know about it but they don't go
SHARE. I would hate to think that this apparently nice facility is
limited to SHARE attendees. I am not against this per se..
The idea that any important piece of information should be
disseminated as widely as possible should be the end point in this
discussion. Since IBM has had this in place for 20 (++?) years with
SMPHOLD data, to me makes this an ideal avenue for IBM to get
information out to the end user (read sysprog) community.
I do like the idea of flash's but in truth over the years they never
seemed to reach the intended community (sysprogs).
IBM has consistently (and to their credit) preached the smphold
mantra. It works. Now maybe if the flash has other audiences then it
serves its purposes. It appears to me that the flashes can exist side
by side with smphold data they should not be mutually exclusive, so
what if a flash and a holddata are sent out? No one is going to
complain.
