The U2UG has been pursuing this. The IBM U2 division has tried to come up with a compromise; the details of this appeared in the IBM newsletter at the end of last year which I have attached at the end of this email. You can contact your VAR to organize for an IBM number that gives you access to the knowledge base, the instructions are in the attached details.
IBM U2 is also making some effort to move some of these documents to an area outside of the current process to make it available to other U2 users such as the recent article by Mark Baldbridge. http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/dm-dw-dm-0512baldridge-i.html?S_TA CT=105AGX11&S_CMP=FP The U2UG is also endeavoring to build up a knowledgebase available to the U2UG members with the prototype at the following link http://www.mvopen.org/kb The U2UG is also campaigning to get more examples made available by IBM to enable developers to quickly adopt new U2 technologies, which is being considered. The U2UG board will continue to present the concerns of members over issues such as this to IBM to improve processes for the U2UG members. Organizing a petition as Chuck suggested can assist in further improving the access to documentation.
