Re: web IBMLINK down again -SEV1 32656350
Here's what Mark Fyffe said today in reply to notes I've sent him (and others) regarding IBMLink 2000 outages: From: Mark Fyffe [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Steve, There is a great deal of focus on the problems. There have been some short term steps taken with each problem that has arisen and there is a long term plan which is in the process of being approved. In the meantime we will continue to provide access to the 3270 interface until the stability of IBMLink is acceptable. I understand the frustration and can assure you this has the highest level of attention.

This habitual non-availability of the intended sole customer interface to IBMLink has gone so far past ridiculous that an adequate adjective to describe it does not yet exist in the English language. I received an automatic notification of an update to an open PMR yesterday, and so far have not been able even to sign in to IBMLink on the web (our 3270-interface accounts expired many moons ago) to read the update. The nature of the PMR does not yet warrant a phone call to IBM. Perhaps the time is coming for influential customers to start demanding rebates of a portion of their subscription fees for IBMLink. Its consistent non-availability via the intended interface should not be tolerated. -jc- -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: z/OS 1.8 Features
OpenOffice.org Impress easily allows one to prepare presentation material and natively store in PDF format. File - Export as PDF in OpenOffice.org Impress - been using it for years in Linux.

To my knowledge, there is no application to prepare presentation material that would natively store the material in PDF format. I have used Lotus Freelance and I'm now using MS PowerPoint, both are using proprietary formats to store the presentations. You then use an Adobe plugin or Acrobat Distiller or some other tool to create a PDF file for distribution of handout material. -- Ulrich Boche SVA GmbH, Germany IBM Premier Business Partner -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
