I though you had planned to at least fix things that broke even though you would not add any new functionality. And since it was never source code CBT based, I guess the mainframe community is SOL because I'm sure you (nor Rocket) don't have any intention of ever releasing the source code to the freeware version (although PDS continues to have a freeware version and there is also a successful commercial version as well). I understand you need to make a living, but it is an unfortunate loss to the rest of us. I will probably get rid of it or un-APF authorize it and only use unauthorized functions moving forward if I keep it. Nothing against you Rob (really), but perhaps the keepers of the CBT collection (now Sam Golob and Sam Knutson) should not allow load code only contributions for just this reason. It sort of takes away from the spirit of freeware and what the CBT is all about (IMO).
