"know your job" should not be an excuse for inconvenience.
Why realtively simple and frequently performed activities do require
sophisticated knowledge?
Why new user generations still have to thoroughly study ftp advanced
parameters to finally find out there is no solution for
downloading/uploading dss dumps?
We're talking about basic features which should be available for beginners.
Or maybe we don't want any beginners...

IMHO it is problem with IBM. Are you deaf?
Sometimes it is; sometimes they are. However, not this time.
People really NEED the functionality to simply make single dataset
archive, transmit it to PC *with no tricks and black magic* and then
upload it to a z/OS and unpack.
Know your job. What is difficult about running two programs one after the other
to get the desired result?
What would be wrong with "DUMP DS() OUDATASET(some.PS) *TRANSMITTABLE*" ?
Output format should be FB (with no blocksize harcoded, any LRECL), ...
Nothing would be wrong, except the fact that the person uploading that thing to
z/OS again would still need to understand to FTP in binary mode *and* to make
sure the target data set *is* FB (and correct LRECL). Again, know your job.
I'm not against the desire to have an option added to DSS. My point is, you can always
find a new situation where you need to combine programs to get the desired result. You
naturally will use scripting (aka JCL), don't you? This is what I meant by "know
your job".
