Thats because the IBMers understood the code and had the source Peter, Thats because the IBMers understood the code and had the source. The customer on the other hand at the time of pre-OCO had the source and the PLMs. Since at the time the source and PLMs were considered the law....<sigh>
After working for now this my second software vendor, first being Legent , no CA-Legent, I understand the source issue.

There's a lot of assuming going on in the posts of the last few days. This assumption too is incorrect in a way. For the most part, no one actually used the PLMs internally either.
