If that's the only hold-up, I can make the resources available to him with little or no delay. Mark Post's got a point, though -- the stuff that comes from IBM Germany is usually obsessively tested before it gets out the door, sometimes too much IMHO. Marcello would do well to consider the source of the submission and the general temperament of the submitters...8-). Failing that, coordinating patches would seem to be an excellent role for a WAVV or SHARE technical representative or another outside organization to assume if he doesn't like it coming directly from IBM. That might also be a nice way to deal with the IBM lawyers -- if the IBMers follow their own guidelines, anything coming out of IBM is known to be clean by IBM standards. Patches from other sources can be vetted and integrated into the 390 tree by the outside org w/o having to involve all the IBM processes. > > Alan >
