I'd prefer all open source is either provided by IBM 5733OPS or via the
community (using OBS approach or other). In my eyes perzl.org is a
stepping stone on our IBMiOSS journey. That doesn't mean I don't immensely
appreciate Perzl's efforts; but they do need to just be a stepping stone
and not a destination.

I happen to agree with all of that, but I was wondering if perzl.org
is already a destination for some people. For all I know, there is an
established AIX community who views perzl.org as their canonical
repository, and they want it to live on indefinitely. And if that's
the case, then some (even in the midrange community) might consider
efforts to rebuild any already-working-on-PASE-as-is perzl packages to
be wasteful.

Just putting it out there.
