I'm not a SHARE member, but I understand SHARE does have some influence in what IBM does and does not do. I would appreciate if SHARE would immediately go strongly after IBM for what they are currently doing to their web content. I'm not in a position to do that, unfortunately. I know there are members on this list who have a deeper connection to SHARE. Can any of you help us, please?
This is sabotage! Sabotage to IBM's clients! For the last couple of years, IBM (and other companies) have forced us towards the internet. Acquiring information in usable formats such as Bookmaster or PDFs was made harder and harder, if you were lucky you could find a place to download documentation. But the longer the more, documentation became available as webpages only, without the possibility to save a copy locally for later reference. And now they feel comfortable to break that internet. Now they feel comfortable to remove content of products still in service. I have no confidence in my own management whatsoever, so I won'd even try to tell then what is going on, and ask them for help by approaching IBM. It's a waste of time. And this is why I'm hoping for SHARE to support us in this matter -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
