Likewise, I depend on PDFs of many many IBM manuals, and am flabbergasted that IBM keeps moving them around, and frankly just making it harder and harder to find them on their website.
Whatever wonderful new tools and techniques you care to implement, I merely want a simple page where I can see a list of PDFs, and easily just download the ones I want. The bundles of PDFs are great as well. This is what IBM provided for a number of years, and worked very well. My job description doesn't include spending inordinate amounts of time re-learning how to access documentation every few months. Also, everyone I know spends time renaming the PDF files to include the title. It'd be awful nice if IBM did that in the first place. That said, I do appreciate that IBM does provide the documentation for free, and without requiring a lot of licensing/registration/authorization roadblocks. sas On Fri, Apr 28, 2017 at 8:08 AM, Steve Thompson <ste...@copper.net> wrote: > On 04/28/2017 06:50 AM, Dejan Stamatovic wrote: > >> I totally subscribe to your point of view: >> Peter Hunkeler <p...@gmx.ch> wrote >> >> Now, I B M w i l l y o u p l e a s e, p l e a s e n o t a b a n >> d o n t h i s "Download books in PDF format" support ever!!!
