Perhaps I have a few screws loose. But I am watching a slow
progression,
the catalyst of which, from where I sit is OCO. And I can see this
decline to day in manuals from IBM from the new generation of O/S
Component developers (TCP & OMVS types). But I also see it in other
"system" manuals that have less and less information. I see it in
answers to PMR/ETRs that take as much as 6 months to get resolution
when
the problem is so incredibly obvious (my co-worker dealt with this and
has much more patience than I).
How many have taken swipes at USS and say it's in the eye of the
beholder? How many have said that it actually belongs to VTAM? How
many
yawn and say, will you guys just get over it?
But "USS" is just another symptom of internal breakdown at IBM.
And so these things need to be vocalized with IBM at SHARE and
Disclosure Meetings. Until these things become painful to the
management
of IBM, it won't get better, it will get worse.

Steve,
For what its worth I agree with you but nobody agrees with me on here
so welcome to the see/hear nothing world of IBM.
