Actually, mailing list postings are often used by me and other Interested IBMers to drive change, whether it's in the product, our processes, our perceptions, or our plans (the 4 P's?). Sometimes the postings are used as "evidence" and other times simply as input. In this case, another IBMer who follows the list also knows who manages IBMLink and has contacted said manager. That said, as with requirements, you still need to use established processes to report problems with IBM services. You are not alone in the wilderness! :-) Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
