http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA1E106/CHANGES <quote> | As part of the name change of OS/390 OpenEdition to OS/390 UNIX System | Services, occurrences of OS/390 OpenEdition have been changed to OS/390 | UNIX System Services or its abbreviated name, OS/390 UNIX. OpenEdition may | continue to appear in messages, panel text, and other code with OS/390 | UNIX System Services. </quote> Today's "abbreviated form" is, naturally, "z/OS UNIX". > You knew that USS was being used for unix system services ... On reading the subject I didn't! Matan has asked VTAM questions in the not too distant past in case you didn't know which was a further factor in wanting to point out how this misuse wasted my time and that of anyone else who might have more of an interest in Communications Server (CS). Once these novices have started to specialise in supporting CS they may well be joining me in getting upset by diving into posts - or just being alerted by these false subject lines - which are not what they might be. It's put the cat among the pigeons to illustrate what this means - as it was intended to with some effect it would seem! And the *really* "intelligent" might take note. Sadly I expect some won't.

Chris, I happen to read this in my "trash". In the examination, I know that you are not unintelligent. Please grant the list a certain amount of credit and do not feign stupidity. You knew that USS was being used for unix system services and chose to make your exhaustively covered campaigning for USS being only referencing Unformatted System Services point once again.
