Subject: MQ software evolution - fill in the gaps?


I'm pretty sure this is the order... I've been working with MQ since 
the beta in 1992.  I kept the listing focused on the "big" 
platforms...

MQM MVS/ESA V1.1 GA (MVS)- December 31, 1993 
ezBridge Transact for MQSeries -  March, Sept, Nov, Dec 1993 
(different platforms)
MQM/400 V2.3 - Feb/April 1994
MQSeries for MVS 1.1.2 - June 1994
ezBridge Transact for MQSeries 3.0 - July 1994
MQM/400 V3 - 4Q 1994
MQSeries 2.0 (OS/2, AIX) - Feb 1995 (the beginning of the end of 
ezBridge)
MQSeries for MVS 1.1.3 - May 1995
MQSeries 2.2 (HP, SCO) - 4Q 1995
MQSeries 2.0 Windows NT - 2Q 1996
MQSeries 2.2 (Sun OS/Solaris, DC/OSx) - June, July 1996 
MQSeries for MVS 1.1.4, - June 1996
MQSeries for MVS/ESA 1.2 - August 1997
MQSeries 5.0 -  October 1997  (on my birthday no less!) MQSeries for
AS/400 V4.2 - Feb 1998 MQSeries 5.1 -  April (NT), June 1999 MQSeries
for OS/390 V2.1 - Feb 1999 MQSeries for AS/400 V5.1 - July/Aug 2000
MQSeries for OS/390 V5.2 - Nov 2000 MQSeries 5.2 (Distributed) -  Dec
2000 WebSphere MQ 5.3 (Distributed, iSeries) - June, July, Oct, Nov 2002
WebSphere MQ 5.3 z/OS - June 2002

MQSI and Workflow also made their debut in 1998 (Flowmark was 
discontinued in 1999).  MQSI V2 came out 2000.... WHEW someone can 
finish MQSI and MQWF if they wish...  

Any former employees of SSI can argue the ezBridges dates... but I 
think they're accurate.


For those techies who attend the SHARE technical conference, we will 
be having MQ's 10th birthday party at the February 2004 meeting!
