I'm sure you can understand why. Management has had us stuck in the 20th Century and now seems to be ready to accept the migration from the mainframe has taken so much longer than expected they have to upgrade. Only CMS compilers are gone. CMS VSAM is gone.
Please give us a Staement of Direction regarding CMS itself--don't keep us in an office pool about its EoS. Is that too much to ask? If so, we need to plan to move those functions off CMS as part of the upgrade. Management may very well decide to continue limping along while they beef up the migration effort. Frankly, I wouldn't blame them, as VSE has never been really profitable either, has it? -- May the LORD God bless you exceedingly abundantly!
