Binyamin:
I agree but to a specific point disagree.
I have been in several shops where read access was given to
SYS1.PARMLIB . Every one of those shops at least one time a month we
were called into a meeting to "discuss" contents of sys1.parmlib.
Those meeting could last 2-5 hours arguing the contents of one member
or another. It got so bad that I had to move the contents to another
restricted library (in the concatenation) to stop such meetings(and
leave dummy entries behind). It seems that every tom dick and harry
*KNEW* what one parameter or another should be. On one occasion I
changed a member because it was mandated and of course it did not do
anything to solve the problem (was there really a problem?)
Politics is a PITA time waster so keep everything in other libraries
so you stop the politics before it happens.

You should protect your SYS1.DUMP dataset.
In general, protect the data, not the program - unless the program
is APF and
bypasses OPEN without a security check.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.
I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
