Re: z/OS Internet Library Broken (again)
Much better. All of the information now appears to be accessible. This was the big issue. However: Selecting PDF download tabs for (each of) z/OS V2.3, V2.2, and V2.1 shows the in-page redirect lists. Unfortunately, each list is shown in a different format. Someone needs to decide on the "correct" presentation format and all of the pages should display with the same format.

Re: z/OS Internet Library Broken (again)
Hi Sue, Thanks for soliciting feedback before implementation. A couple thoughts... 1) The link is supposed to point to a main element KC page for z/OS 2.2 (true?), but a number of the PDF links point to z/OS 2.1 manuals, was this by design? 2) Some of the pdf links refer to manuals where the dates do not match the 'last updated' date value, again by design? I guess I've become a little jaded. A few months ago, I could go to a z/OS 2.1 or 2.2 elements and features link and confidently gain access to the pdf I was looking for. It was so reliable that doubts about content/version never crept into my head. More recently, I have recently become conditioned to doubt, so the idea of adding a another data element or two into the mix (last updated), and an ease of use grouping (KC/pdf) on the same page, while appealing, also makes me think additional room for error has been introduced into a format that was simpler, yet one that IBM has struggled with lately. IMO, the problems resulting in numerous errors over the past 1-2 months need to be understood and corrected before changing the UI, even to something representing an improvement.

Re: z/OS Internet Library Broken (again)
I ran into an issue this weekend looking for a z/OS 2.2 manual. What happened was when I selected a link to a 2.2 manual I got a 2.1 manual. With some hunting I was able to find the 2.2 version of the manual. I reported this issue to the "feedback" link over the weekend. When I was asked "How likely are you to recommend the ibm.com website to a colleague or business partner?" I gave it a 0 (zero). I'm not going to recommend something that is broken. Thanks..
