Not tryna be contentious, just honestly confused: "already"? As opposed to what? I.e.,
what makes this an "already"?
Not to defend Timothy or z/OS :-) however z/OS 3.1 is still before GA.
So it will be Unix certified since day of premiere. That's good IMHO.
BTW: I used to teach z/OS USS (Unix System Services) and to complement
official materials I found out that some quite known Unix systems were
not certified for years. Example: HP-UX.
To be contentious: nowadays nobody cares. Indeed, when we talk about
non-Windows distributed system we usually think about Linux. Even POWER
machines are more and more used for Linux workloads, not AIX. And the
Linux is not UNIX certified.
Not to mention, other systems are really diminished or even faded out.
OS/2, VMS, Gecos, ICL MVE & George, Siemens BS2000, Dynix, QNX, Netware,
XOS ...and z/VSE.
