IBM only updates the online collection when they issue new CDs/DVDs for a new 
release of an operating system.

That was kind of the theory I was developing in my mind. Better than "IBM has 
abandoned the thing entirely." Only two more weeks.

Well, not quite what you're after, but I stumbled on this yesterday:

The COBOL docs can be found here (and other places, I'm sure):

Strange. I originally got them off of the old z/OS CD and then DVD
manual sets, I think.

Perhaps when z/OS 2.1 goes GA the end of the month they will provide a
documentation bundle that will include COBOL 5.1.

For some strange reason, IBM only updates the online collection when they issue new CDs/DVDs 
for a new release of an operating system.  That's why z/VSE and z/VM have newer shelves than 
z/OS.  Apparently IBM still hasn't learned how to use that new fangled Internet thingie yet!
