New version of iSeries Access for Windows

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

There is a download available of the beta version of iSeries Access for 
Windows.  It is available at:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/access/windows/beta.html .

CAUTION!!!
If you like the feature under Application Development to deal with the 
stray mutex's and semaphores that are often generated by Domino 
applications then do not upgrade to this, (unless you can't live without 
the other features).

IBM is stressing unicode, Java code, or ashcan.  Evidently that part of 
iSeries Navigator was neither unicode enabled, or written in Java.  IBM 
-thought- that only unix propeller heads was using that and that they 
would prefer a green screen qshell method of finding this information. 
Apparently they were unaware that numerous end users of Domino have to use 
this function on occasion, (Alas.  Alas, both that IBM thought this way, 
and alas that Domino has these issues.).  They are now aware of the errors 
of their ways.  No statement of direction about what, if anything, will be 
done to put this function back in.
