RE: Reason not to go to V6R1

I can't believe there are that many users of Fast/400.  I actually had one
customer who used it and they could never get license codes renewed in a
timely manner, if at all.  They are long off the Iseries BTW.  IBM
succeeded.

I know that many vendors have been informed of the MI/Fast400 busting
issues that IBM is tweeking in 6.1 and for many there are IBM supplied
work arounds to AUTHORIZED vendors...but I've spoken with lots of vendors
and they've been at least put on notice...now, if they actually DID
anything about it...well....film at 11 on that one.. :)  Am I expect
traffic on the MI400 listserver to pickup once it's out and people start
playing...time will tell...
