Hi Steve,
Please provide an example (URL to the PDF, then page number and link
text) of a bad cross-book link for me to use to check into the problem -
thanks!

A few questions:
What release of the product documentation? I ask because we

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
