IceBreak don?t have any screen scraping features (..yet..). So no WebFacing
API here. 

But you are correct about one thing. IceBreak are using features which are
normally hidden to "normal ISVs".

The JIT IceBreak feature would not have been possible if it wasn?t for my
friends in Rochester. (Thanks guys - if you are listening on this post).

Sometimes IBM can be extremely helpful and devoted to promote your projects
- other times like talking to a closed door. I can't figure out how and
when.

Nope - the virtual terminal APIs are a completely separate thing from  
the WebFacing API. I used them years ago and if recall correctly they  
are pretty nasty.

To-date IBM have only released details of the WebFacing API to  
"qualified" ISVs which includes folks like Look, Zend (Zend Bridge is  
based on this) and I think Icebreak among others.
