Hello? I rather expect things to change given the business we're in. I prefer it to boredom.

Then charging you to 'fix' it?

IBM isn't charging anyone to 'fix' anything. Any customer implementing exit code in any component expressly commits to the cost of maintaining that code--at no point did IBM guarantee an unchanging interface. What IBM *is* doing is recognizing that some customers are unwilling or physically unable to internally satisfy that commitment and providing an alternative.

I still think that's wrong.

And I don't. Should I be the only competent JES2 exit programmer on staff when I retire, I'd like to think that my company would still have the choice to either maintain or dispense with the function it had decided to so implement.
