Kirk, No way! This is under the title of mainframe modernisation. There are
so many services that are based on open source as well as many vendor
products. Open source is part of our life. Now we have to deal (and live)
with it.

What I am saying is that there are thousands of java jar files in USS and
you don't know your risks. Just for the record, on my 2.3 system there are
about 14,000 different jar files. We were able to analyze all of them and
propagate it with NVD. Will run tomorrow on 2.4. I expect to see the same
issues.
