Some reasons for qualifying the library in a CL program:

I have other reasons, will reply later with additional information.
Hint: There are some very good reasons for qualifying the IBM commands used
in certain CL programs to QSYS.

What are some of the CL programming standards that your shop has found
valuable?
I would think that a few standards are NEVER have the following in
production CL:
- never have a library name in CL (OK allow QTEMP)
- never have even a variable library name in CL
- never have a person's name or email address in CL (OK in author comments)
Would a library in CL ever be necessary? I would think that good coding
would allow the *libl to do the work of choosing the correct lib in almost
all cases.
Comments and additional good practices?
