Pretty much what we do with MXI G2 - much easier (and cheaper) than
cutting and mailing cartridges.

Subject: Re: Non-SMP/e packaging

I once installed a product called TASA from INFOSECINC.
The package is downloadable from the company's web site as a binary
file.  It then is TSO RECEIVED into a
samplib.   The supplied install
jobs do all the SMPE stuff.

Seems the best of both worlds.........

I have never heard complaints about FDR support, etc.
Is seems that SMP/E is not crucial to it.


People discuss about *binary* alternatives: SMP/E or library unload.
I think there are other ways to manage the code. Even SMP/E could be
simpler. Current conceptions are for historical reasons, not because of
real needs. Compromise between history and usability makes SMP/E
difficult to understand and then cumbersome.

Why don't we think about "SMP2" - new approach, totally free of old
junk.
