Also worthy of note (at least to me): The Personal Itinerary scheduling tool know contains the appropriate HTML and links to back-end iCalendar files which allows you to click on an icon and add a session to your Outlook, Apple iCal, or Notes calendar (some versions of Notes do better at this than others) - it should work with whatever calendaring app you use as long as that app supports the '.ics' file format (RFC 2445). From there, it's easy (usually) to sync it to your PDA or phone's calendar. Many thanks to the SHARE HQ folks who have worked hard to implement this and iron out bugs over the past couple of SHAREs. It's definitely a great improvement over the download the entire agenda to my PDA days.

UPDATE: Since we originally posted this message back in October, the SHARE web site is now live with all the details of the sessions we've planned for the entire SHARE program in Tampa. Check it out at http://www.share.org/events/Tampa/agenda_tools.cfm and see which sessions will pay for *your* trip to SHARE! Greetings to all! It's time to start thinking about the Winter SHARE, February 11-16, 2007 in Tampa, Florida. We have an excellent slate of sessions, and a bevy of willing speakers. All we need is you! We hope you'll be able to attend, and please look us up if you do. Check out http://www.share.org for registration details. PLEASE NOTE: As a heads up for regular SHARE attendees, several Projects within the MVS Program at SHARE have scheduled a strong technical program starting Sunday afternoon at 1:30 pm for the Tampa SHARE. Please make sure you check the online agenda tools before making travel arrangements, so that you get to Tampa in time to take advantage of sessions you don't want to miss which are being offered starting Sunday afternoon.

I have absolutely no information about what the next release of the operating system we currently call z/OS 1.8 will be. When I wrote z/OS 1.9, I was wrong. I apologize. I imagine it might be logical to presume that the release number would increment by one, but of course that is not the only change that could occur - the version number could change, or the operating system name could change, or some combination. Please read my use of z/OS 1.9 as simply casual shorthand on the part of myself (a simple sysprog and not a lawyer) to mean the the operating system release after z/OS 1.8.

True, when you haven't taken quite a few twists and turns in your career, changing names does add to the bulk in a resume, even if there isn't all that much substance. But if you've been away from it for a while (OK, not counting managing OS/390 system programmers for a while, it was about 10 years), it becomes a problem when the last operating system you actually touched and supported was called MVS and the interviewer asks 'I see you supported MVS before, but have you never worked on z/OS?'
