I couldn't agree more. It always saddens me to see people saying byebye here. Ill-health forced me to stop work in March 2000, but I was never given time at work to use groups like this - always did so in my own time, and I'm still here (and on many other computing mail lists, eg for OSes and products I have never used but their discussions interest me). Here, there's more and more discussions that I couldn't usefully contribute to, but it is still INTERESTING, so I'm staying. (I did a Computer Science degree in the early 1980s, then worked as an applications programmer in a VM/CMS site (& also with BBC micros), then became a trainee MVS sysprog, and in due course a more senior one, then moved sideways to run a small ops/systems-focussed programming team, at a UK bank.) -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
