Re: TESTB in /free

Rob - I don't think we can assume anything - you know that we are 
developing to V5R1 - and we don't need to go into the oft-elongated 
discussions we have had on that - you are not a software house, your 
situation is very different from ISVs.

Hence, I will always lobby for naming the release when a certain feature 
appeared - especially in regard to SQL. I really appreciate all the 
What's new in VxRx in the RPG ILE Reference - I just wish there were a 
place where the opcodes and %BIFs and keywords were all listed, and then 
tell when the item first appeared. All the APIs do that, albeit in their 
own docs, not in a summary list.

Hey!!! Maybe there could be an RPG Programmer's Reference Summary - 
who'da thunk it was possible? Wait!! There used to be one!!!
