FTPS, but not SFTP?
Is this retroactive to products older than 2.1?
As I understand things, this really has nothing to do with z/OS V2R1.
Not sure why it's in the announcement.
How else would (or should) we let people know?
I was under the impression that this secure FTP requirement was
across-the-board and not just z/OS 2.1. Perhaps I'm wrong.
IBM is not limited to one announcement per Tuesday. Often, there are
multiple announcements in one day.
It's definitely NOT limited to z/OS, but we commonly make announcements
related to z/OS platform software delivery in the z/OS announcements to
avoid the overhead of separate software delivery announcements. Also,
some of the things that are affected by the change cannot have their own
announcements because of how our announcement system works, and the z/OS
announcements seem the best place to reach the widest audience.
Last, I was remiss in not mentioning that there are other components to
the overall communications plan, including updates to the download page,
Technotes, ServiceLink news, SHARE presentation (mine!), and there are
a few ways planned to get the word out.
