It appears to not be allowed. I found the following statement on the Web on IBM's site:
<quote> Program Name: IBM 31-bit SDK for z/OS, Java Technology Edition, Version 6 Program Number: 5655-R31 Authorization for Use on Home/Portable Computer: You may not copy and use this Program on another computer without paying additional license fees. </quote> at http://www-03.ibm.com/software/sla/sladb.nsf/lilookup/11CD609EDEFCFF70002573D90034353D?opendocument&li_select=1AD4D4929452F550002573D90034353A tinyurl: http://preview.tinyurl.com/ydvceqr The "problem" is that this product is licensed at "no charge". But I guess that doesn't really matter. As Robert Hayes said in Airplane! "What a pisser!" Sorry if I offended anyone with that word. The Alphaworks version of jzos apparently may be so downloaded and used: <quote> You may 1) use the Program only for internal evaluation or testing purposes, and 2) make and install a reasonable number of copies, including a backup copy, of the Program to support such use. The terms of this license apply to each copy You make. You will reproduce all copyright notices and all other legends of ownership on each copy, or partial copy, of the Program. </quote> Basically all that I'm using is the Assembler Record Generator portion. But, given some other responses, it may be illegal to download my ADATA to my PC because embedded in the ADATA is the source code to the macros which I used to generate the program, parts of which are copyrighted by IBM.
