The 1.8 announcement mentions z/OS V1.9 and z/OS V1.10, but includes a note which says "Operating system levels beyond z/OS and z/OS.e 1.8 represent current intentions of IBM."

When I wrote "z/OS 1.9", I was wrong. I apologize. I imagine it might be logical to presume that the release number would increment by one, but of course that is not the only change that could occur - the version number could change, or the operating system name could change, or some combination. Please read my use of "z/OS 1.9" as simply casual shorthand on the part of myself (a simple sysprog and not a lawyer) to mean the "the operating system release after z/OS 1.8". *********************************************************************** Bear Stearns is not responsible for any recommendation, solicitation, offer or agreement or any information about any transaction, customer account or account activity contained in this communication. *********************************************************************** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
