Re: You can get your hands on WDSc 7.0 staring March...

You say WebSphere maintenance is handled by Passport Advantage. Which 
WebSphere product? Are you talking WebSphere App Server or WebSphere 
Development Studio Client? And your original post was about WebSphere 
Host Appl Transformation Service. All along the way I find the use of 
WebSphere in the name to be awfully confusing to customers. Just 
saying WebSphere does not identify any product - it is a kind of 
umbrella term used for everything from IBM these days.
