Maybe it means that IBM wishes every ISPF (development) shop to use WDz. Which 
is more profitable to IBM. <cynicism/>

Being a bit of a Java freak, I like the fact that SDSF will now be accessable 
via Java classes. Might be another way to integrate some SDSF functionality 
into Web pages.

They've also fixed the UNIX 2038 time bug by introducing a 64 bit clock value 
into C/C++.

And, wonderfully, logging onto multiple z/OS images within a single sysplex is 
now supported.

VSAM CA autoreclaim may help us to do fewer reorgs.
