Hello search390 members,

Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Catherine Doss, Assistant Editor for search390. My job is to populate the Best Web Links section of search390. I spend a great deal of time surfing the Web to find the most relevant, up-to-date 390 information out there so you, the busy professional, do not have to. My goal is to save you time and help make your job a bit easier.

So, let me know if there is anything you'd like to see posted in our Best Web Links section. I'm always open to suggestions. Our collective goal here at search390 is to be your leading S/390 information source. Drop me a line here, and let me know how I'm doing.

I look forward to hearing from you.

This Week: In the forums
>> Search390 members, we'd like to know what topics, products, issues or trends you think will be "hot" in 2002? What will affect the 390 community the most next year? Will Linux continue to be the talk of the town? How about WebSphere? Software costs going to rise or fall? Please let us know what you think! Post your thoughts in our Sound Off discussion forum.
>> There have been a lot of posts this week concerning synchronous transactions in a single CICS region in the developer forum. See the questions your peers are asking and the answers our experts have posted on the subject. To view the threads, click here.

Tip of the Week:
Have you played with IBM's Visual Age Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) for Java? How about VAJ's incremental compiling? What do you think of the object-based, rather than file based, orientation? Well, it's all being superceded by WebSphere Studio WorkBench on top of the open-source Eclipse IDE.
