Re: Is 6.1 'beta' and 7.1 the more stable release?

Jim,

I was being honest. I was the one spreading the FUD. I am the one
encouraging 7.1. I have full faith that IBM is fully supporting 6.1 and
7.1. V5R4 dies in September as it states in
http://www-947.ibm.com/systems/support/i/planning/upgrade/suptschedule.html
as the longest supported OS in the history of the line. Totally blowing
away all previous records.

I just don't get people upgrading to 6.1 and not 7.1. Vendor issues?
Switch vendors. I switched change management vendors and others because
they dragged their feet on getting to 6.1. I'm sure not going to stick by
someone who can't get from 6.1 to 7.1 when 7.1 has been GA for over two
years.
