Hi Marna,
I did have a look at some presentations a while ago. Very helpful, so please do 
keep this going.Some presentions are a little sparse. Some more comment would 
be helpful.

Hello IBM-MAINers,
I wanted to ask about the usefulness of the IBM Education Assistance (IEA) for 
z/OS.

A little background:  IEA is found here:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks.nsf/pages/IBMIEAV22avail?Open and provides 
concise and technical information about a specific function introduced in z/OS. 
 For instance, there is a module there for Dynamic
Logrec in z/OS V2.2.It is intended to be a "one stop shopping"
location for new enhancements in a z/OS release.  Of course, all information 
can also be found in the appropriate z/OS books.  We've had IEA for both z/OS 
V2.1 and V2.2.

My questions are:
1)  is this is still a good way to provide this information to you?
2) with all the other ways to learn about new functions, is IEA still needed by 
you?
3) are there particular topics in IEA that you like and want to continue to see 
in the future?  if so, which ones?

Thanks in advance for any opinions you'd like to share.

give feedback.  Thanks, Bonnie
