How about developing on KicksForTso and leave conversion to a more
modern compiler to the user? DogeCoin app was developed that way.

There was a post within the past year about FTP being slow.
It came down to reverse DNS lookups I think.
Just something to look up perhaps.

DOS/360, DOS/VS, DOS/VSE, OS/VS2 and VM/370 are all free, so there shouldn't
have been an issue unless they sent, e.g., MVS/SE, VM/BSE, VSE/AF.

Actually now I was totally able to customize all my dataset names, which is
really great. It is time consuming because I basically had to change
everything.. My dlibs are on a dedicated volume and my RES datasets on another
volume.
Then they changed all the ZFS dataset

Hi list,
Was I the only one caught flat-footed with the IBM announcement today that in
just over 4 months (2/28/2022), they're dropping support on TS1140 tape
transports? Was there an earlier announcement that this was coming and I just
missed it or was this the first notification?
Yeah, remember what happened when one of the original Hercules group requested
the tapes for MVS/370, DOS, and VM/370. Nobody at IBM checked to determine if
that was OK, and the tapes were sent. Afterwards, the hammer came down.

Hi Terri.
I had a more positive experience with z/osmf installation of a z/os serverpac

A long time ago I had created a ‘software instance’ from a pair of z/os 2.4
target/dlib zones. I used this as a model for my 2.5 installation and was very

I do understand what you say, but I tend to doubt that IBM (even the vigorous
IBM legal team) would care whether a new tool or utility developed on a ZD
