I have voted for both of these.  I think.  How does one indicate strength of
interest (1-2-3-4-5)?  I couldn't find that.

That's a weak "yes" for me.  But it shouldn't be "similar to CMS"; it should 
rely
on reusable code as much as possible, for portability/compatibility/synchronized
maintenance.

That's a strong "yes".  I'd add a couple things:

o Stream I/O is already supported in compiled Rexx, but only for Classic data 
sets,
  and in OMVS interpreted, but only for UNIX files.  Both should be supported 
everywnere.

o The standard SIGNAL ON NOTREADY should be part of the requirement.  (That
  can't be done in a function package.)

(Can you amend?)

There's some overlap here; it should be possible to bridge stream I/O to the
putative TSO Pipelines.

Thanks,
gil
