We don't have any compilers here, so I will tell you how I have handled this in 
the past.
 
In most cases I have taken responsibility only for the most rudimentary 
compile/link procs that are distributed by IBM.  Applications and/or QA has 
managed the procs actually used in development, though I typically review them 
and make suggestions re: performance/efficiency.  Of course, I provide support 
and assistance for any system changes that require changes to their procs.

Who is responsible for updating the PROCs when new loadlibs are added?
Who changes the invocation utilities to incorporate new or overridden
options or other variables?
Who decides the architectural requirements for the application and codes
the overrides for those?

It's pretty clear that the app/dev teams own the application programs
and systems owns the underlying functional tools (TSO/ISPF, ROSCOE,
COBOL compiler libraries, etc).  

Thanks for all of the other responses.

Our IT department is having a debate about ownership of the compile
process, PROC's and invocation utilities (REXX, CLIST, RPF's).  I'd like
to hear from some other sysprog types on who owns this process in your
shop? 


Can you define what is meant by "ownership" ?
