As strange as it seems, and for reasons I'm forbidden to speak of, we are bring our "ported & outsourced" processing back onto z/OS simply so that we can stabilise it and "port & outsource" it again in 2 to 3 years. End of my discussion on that under pain of death. I just think that it is nice that IBM is putting some "new & better" languages on z/OS. IMO, what is really better about these new languages is the bundled functionality for TCP/IP, HTTP, regular expression, and so on. > > ------------------------------------------------------------ > -------------------------------------------- > Timothy Sipples > -- I have a theory that it's impossible to prove anything, but I can't prove it.
