Dear Peter I apologize for not responding sooner to your plea for help, but I do want to publicly respond on behalf of SHARE.
SHARE is a community of people representing users of enterprise technology. As such, we regularly participate in discussions with various vendors in the Z ecosystem to influence the ability of those within the ecosystem to accomplish their business objectives, and that includes regular conversations with IBM. We do often find that open, frank conversations in private achieves more than ass-kicking in public so our response may be quieter. Because of you and others, we are aware of the situation with z/OS 2.1 documentation and others that are at risk. For the information of IBM-MAIN readers, several members of the SHARE community have been actively engaging IBM on this issue for some weeks now, through a variety of formal as well as informal channels. As those efforts continue, please be assured that SHARE’s leadership is well aware of the concern and stands ready to assist as appropriate. SHARE is always willing to listen in order to determine if there is a role that we can and should play to solve a problem that is impacting the ecosystem, regardless if someone is a Member of SHARE. The best way to reach out to us to start those conversations is via email to shar...@share.org A.
