That would be great for those shops with mainframe access to the internet, but it would not work for shops that limit such access - those shops that require workstations as an intermediate stage when getting maintenance. That would require getting a copy of"the Great SMPPTS in the Sky" and all other RECIEVE-built datasets to MVS. In those shops, RECEIVE FROMNETWORK (where "network" is a local Unix file) would still be required. And arguments that such restrictions are stupid doesn't make them go away.
