I understood that it was because the new release does not use the
proprietary database anymore, and they would have to rewrite a big part of
the code  
Anyway, obviously IBM is not very interested in having this product under z/OS
We have to remember that they changed the billing scheme 3 years ago or so.  
TSM became a Full capacity product, and you are billed for all even if you
run it on one single LPAR ( i remember posting about it at the time ) 
Not very incentive to say the least.
