If you look back a bit in IBM-MAIN this year, you will find the thread where I also had missed ordering these FMIDs with z/OS 2.1 IBM was able to send me (via DVD) an z/OS 2.1 order which did contain them. And I was able to use BUILDMCS to extract them and then RECIVE/APPLY into my z/OS 2.1 SMP/E environment.
