Since the current email thread has evolved away from this announcement I felt it would make sense to open a separate one.
I can see that z/OS 2.1 received the same certification back in 2013 (https://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3601.htm). Timothy, are you stating that z/OS 3.1 now has the same certification that 2.1 has or is this certification for 3.1 implying any changes as to how USS works and whether anything has been improved from 2.x? I just spent hours on an issue where it turned out that some utilities honor the file tag for code pages while others simply ignore it and use some hard-coded value. I stopped counting the endless hours of time wasted because some weird code page issue appeared in USS. Hopefully, nobody is going to scream "POSIX compliance" at me now..
