Chris (Blaicher) is looking at the question from the ISV point of view. While all of the comments made on both sides of the question are correct, what is not said - at least not here - is that very often we see customers who are very back-level on OS and middleware maintenance and who still want to get the latest and greatest functionality from their ISV software. That is a recipe for misery on both sides, but it never stops people from asking for it. Hence Chris' question (I suspect that was his motivation anyway) CC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
