RE: [IBMiOSS] [EXTERNAL] Re: XMLSERVICE, RPGLE & Java error

Have you submitted an RFE? Get people to vote for it?

Have you submitted it to the COMMON America's Advisory Council? (CAAC)
Have you lobbied for it?

Go to the Spring COMMON POWERuP event where the IBM executives responsible
for the decisions and their direct reports will be. Lobby (politely) for
your cause, with the RFE and requirements already put into the system.

I get the discussion and the reasons behind it. But you are competing for
scarce development dollars and you need to convince IBM they are better off
spending money on this than putting new feature/function into say, DB2 or
other open source projects they are working on.

This list while active and excellent is still small compared to many of the
other sites out there so you need to make your voices heard. The two
methods I mention above are those avenues to get IBM's attention. Ranting
here might make you feel better but it's not going to achieve the end goal.


Cross posting to Midrange-L since this applies there too.

I concur with Richard and Mark.
I hope IBM is listening to this thread.
Please give us better, officially supported tools that replace XMLSERVICE.
