This could be new news, or I could be wrong (hey, shit happens).  The last
time I checked with IBM, the date for V3R1 was May.  Given the stability,
neglible (sp?) cost for V3R2 (assuming you own V3) and time that it takes
to load V3R1 cum tapes, I can't understand why they would extend it.  PS:
V3R2 is very stable.

Loading V3R2 takes two Saturdays, and at the moment, I only have one open
APAR against this release.

I will double check with Rochester Tuesday, and post a correction if I am
wrong.
