All I know is that DVM couldn’t be optimized for z16, and there wasn’t much optimism that this would change. My teammate supports the Zowe cross-memory server which is written in Metal/C. They always compile to the lowest supported level for obvious reasons. It’s far too soon to suggest that Metal/C is being abandoned. > > > Dave Cole, Developer > > dbc...@gmail.com (personal) > dbc...@colesoft.com (business) > 540-456-6518 (cell) > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, > send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
