What does this last statement mean for VPL? We /must/ have access to VPL!
This is UNBELIEVABLE! I sent an IBMLink feedback asking for
clarification about the withdrawal of VM Servicelink -- while indicating
that access to VPL is mandatory. The response I got indicates we must
now "build a case" for continued access to VPL!!!! See below:
Hi Ed,
Thanks for submitting the feedback. I am looking into alternatives for
VPL. The usage for VPL is very low. How often do you use VPL? Any
details you can provide me will be very helpful in building a case for
it. ...Thanks again.. Mark Fyffe, SoftwareXcel Market Manager
VPL is mandatory! Removing VPL amounts to instantaneous conversion of
all code to OCO overnight! This is just simply unacceptable! It cannot
be allowed to happen!
