I can just see the rain-drenched vista of the Poughkeepsie IBM plant in the
poster with a soaking wet z10 sitting on the lawn out front, with the word

IBM's use of V6.1 is shorthand for Version 6 Release 1. The first release
of each version is necessarily "Release 1." What IBM avoids (IIRC) is
*Version* 1, as that implies a future version, presumably with substantial
upgrades.

If I remember the story correctly, you won't see a version such as 6.0,
because in IBM wisdom, this would imply that there would be following
releases (due to the decimal). Now why it's ok to have 6.1, and why that
doesn't carry the same implication, I don't know.

Well, actually, assuming any reasonably rational base, 11 would always follow
10. The question gets interesting when you reach n symbols in a single position
(assuming zero as minimum).

In the days of O/S 360, the even numbered releases were the bad ones. Was it
perhaps because of the team alignments? We went from O/S MFT R15 to R17 and
then to R21 and had very little trouble with any of them. On the other hand,
the people I knew who installed R16 and R20 had all sorts of troub

Not really, no. GDPS is a collection of Services offerings that create an
automated recovery HA/DR environment for System z (site failover, I/O
failover, ...) with special focus on z/OS. GDPS already supports z/VM.
I wonder if some of them were the new decimal floating point instructions from
Rexx that are now in the hardware... ;-)
