IIRC, CICS TS 2.2 was announced before 2.1 shipped. However, 2.1 had
been announced as an "early adopter" release for whatever new
functionality was being offered, and ISTR that the 2.1 announcement
recommended that "production" users of CICS TS should wait for 2.2.
Another trivium regarding CICS TS: Each of the first two versions
delivered three release levels.
