Re: What is the current application that replaces the old WDS

[Pat Barber <mboceanside@xxxxxxx>]

Uhhhhh... so what are these Windows based products that are shipping 
with V7R1
lableled "Rational Developer for i" version 7.5 ???

This entire thread just confirms what I have been thinking for a while, 
nobody really
has a complete understanding of what IBM is doing.

I have NEVER known of IBM to change/modify a license agreement on any 
older products
and not providing the customer with the "next" or "upgraded" version of 
the product.

All of the thousands of customers that have/had/still have the old 
WDS(seu,pdm,sda,etc,etc)
are screwed by IBM ??? I find that hard to believe.
