I guess, your company might find it interesting to know that ftp and the internet has been around for a "few months" now, some of us are actually using it. .

We keep a 54GB zfs file mounted at /DownloadDirector for products, serverpacs and maintenance...., z/OS team uses it, DB2 team uses it, Network team uses it, CICS team uses it, etc., etc. and we run skulker to clean it up periodically

Yes it's great if you are allowed to connect your system to the
internet.  For the rest (few?) of us who cannot, we still need
maintenance.

And while we are on the subject, why does an internet download have to
go to a Unix file?  Is there some reason SMP/E couldn't handle a normal
dataset?  If I wanted a Unix system, I would have bought one.
