Hello,
Yes, the SAXREXEC isn't installed into by the System REXX Web deliverable
FMID HBB77SR, however, we do reserve the right in the future to ship a PTF
to HBB77SR that *does* use this data set.  (I'm aware that the current level
of the Web deliverable program directory says it used 16 tracks for
SAXREXEC.)  By allocating the data set with the Web deliverable, we
positioned ourselves to have the ability to install into it with a future
PTF, as well as provide the data set necessary for user-provided System REXX
EXECs.

If I could lightly touch on the "never fully tested" comment...  Although
it's clear that more installation testing should have been performed on this
Web deliverable, it *was* installation tested and *was* successfully APPLYed
multiple times. (It just so happened that all those test environments had
the JPN FMID JBB773J installed - remember, we support users world-wide and
test with languages other than US English.)

We are doing an analysis on each problem this Web deliverable has
encountered, have identified where in the process that it occurred, how it
could have been prevented, and how to verify it won't happen in the next Web
deliverable.  

I hope this can give you some confidence that these problems are getting the
right attention here.
