According to our records, many of you have ordered the Common Criteria
feature of z/VM 5.1. I am gratified, but curious to know if any of you
ordered it because you must run in an evaluated configuration or must at
least use an evaluated product. If that is the case, please send me a
note OFFLINE. (Your name/organization will be treated as Confidential.)
Please include the word "CCC" in the subject line to ensure it doesn't get
lost in the dumping ground I call an inbox.
If you ordered because it was free, or you have no idea what I'm talking
about, then you don't need to respond. :-) (Who can turn down free
features?)
In your own interests, I encourage you to NOT post your response back to
the list; it's not something to be broadcast to the world at large (yea or
nay).
I could telephone each of you, but I actually DO have a life, contrary to
rumor. Don't wait. Act now.
Thanks in advance,
Alan
