Hi Elardus,
Wow, you're even more expensive than my babysitter! Never mind. ;-)
I completely agree that it would be nice if all products that run
on z/OS could provide content in the same downloadable format and
that it's all easy to find. In the meantime, I like your idea of
a ""big-mother-of-all" URL" and will run it by our strategist.
(Of course, we have
https://www.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink/svc00100.nsf/pages/zosInternetLibrary
for z/OS, but that doesn't include the other products.) Consider
opening a requirement for it - that will help with participation
from the other products.

I have another problem, and I haven't read all the "rants" here,
but thought I'd list the issue I've just run into while working
on a migration issue.
KC is a fact of life. I can complain about it all I want but IBM
management isn't listing, they are going to do what they want.
What I would like to see is when I down load PDFs out of KC, that
those PDFs do not ASS-U-ME that I have an internet connection.
So when I click on a link in the PDF that is to another page in
that same PDF, it should not cause a browser to pop-up trying to
get to a KC web page.
Why? Well, think about someone who is working while traveling. I
may be on a train that does not have WiFi, or I might be on a
plane with the same issues -- Or I'm not willing to pay US$5 (or
EU 4,30) for an hour of WiFi that is rather slow when you think
about it (how many of us are road warriors... bandwidth and QOS...).
But when I'm traveling and not able to do programming, I work on
documentation... And that means I reference PDFs from various
vendors. I like the ones that their links to areas within their
manuals work.
Regards,
Steve Thompson
