There is a new NOTIFY JCL statement.
It will allow you to send the notification to up to 8 addresses.

Will a RACF custom field be needed to be defined for the user profiles? I'm 
curious about this one.

You can ask 1001 questions, but I'm more concerned how JES2 and CSMTP are 
improved to receive such notification. Also I'm wondering how the e-mails are 
going to look?

I also want to have multiple persons to be notified about a job completion. If 
that is not possible, then it can be arranged that a group to be defined (at 
the receivers e-mail server)  so multiple persons are notified with one single 
mail.

CSMTP can do these translations from EBCDIC, but I'm also wondering.

Let us wait until the planned availability date 29 September 2017...
