What worries me is the fact that the fix sets default processing to UseZosV1R9Rules(Yes). You don't have to do anything to remain in the safe pre-1.10 mode, so many customers will probably overlook this 1.10 enhancement. How long will this mode remain supported (imbed and replicate's toleration lifetime has ended too)? When will we have to go to 1.10 mode? IBM will want to end duplicate code paths at some moment (like SECP). The advantages are clear and will become more pressing with growing DB2 etc. systems, that will benefit more and more from the consolidated DQE's. ISV's might be tempted to request keeping UseZosV1R9Rules(Yes), i.e. remove the UseZosV1R9Rules(No), in stead of solving their problems quickly. I had rather seen the default UseZosV1R9Rules(No) and the (Yes) value optional, so you will see it any time you scan your parmlib with z/OS upgrades.
