IBM has posted, *ON THIS LIST*, that USS is *not* a correct
abbreviation for Unix System Services. Individual IBM employees may
have misused the term, just as individual IBM employees may have
misused the term BSC.

Further, there is a sound reason to to make USS a formal abbreviation
for Unix Services; the fact that you need to configure USS in order to
provide access to Unix Services, or at least to configure a component
with the same syntax.
