Have people bring the problem up at the various z series conferences, both those hosted by IBM and at user groups like SHARE. Have them point out that it makes IBM software look unreliable and unable to scale. It could be a vulnerability waiting to be exploited by competitors. If anyone attends the IBM annual meeting they could bring it up there, probably better in informal conversation with an executive so that it doesn't become front page news. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
