I had promised an update to this list and had every intention of posting it
to
the entire list.  Quite frankly after the reaction I got from my CISC/RISC
key
response I have chosen not to post it.

All of us that have decided to stay with SSA GT did so because we believe in
the
software and we believe there is a future here.  Staying with SSA GT was a
very
conscious decision on my  part.  So unfortunately, I take SSA GT  being
called
liars, cheats etc..   very personally .   I find the attacks on SSA GT by
some
of the individuals on this list, self serving, callus and destructive  (I am
only speaking for myself now).  I  am therefore no longer willing to give
out
any information on this open forum.

 If you would like the update I have prepared, please send an e-mail to
kmiller@ssax.com.  In the email send me your name, the company you work for
and
a phone number, this is required information if I am to send you the update.
I
want to be able to verify who I am sending the information to, I will not
call
you unless asked to.  If you have a specific question please send it along,
if
it is not addressed in my current response,  I will address it individually.
I
travel a lot and have a lot of responsibilities so be patient, I will
respond to
you as soon as I can.

Key
      logic?  )



dear ms novak
everything that you say about contacting the lawyers is correct as is your
statement that the opinions stated in this forum are not official policies
of
SSA GT.

but there seems to be a noticeable silence from SSA GT as to what their
official
polices are. we have had more than one posting from more than one alleged
client
stating that SSA GT was reviewing / renegotiating  existing contracts. i
have
also been told that SSA GT has not renewed any affiliate contracts.  of
probably
more immediate concern is that many clients probably have OGS contracts that
have either expired or will be expiring soon. we are all in the process of
preparing our 2001 budgets. where do we get information on OGS renewal
options,
prices, etc.? where do we get information on what has ben referred to as
BPCS
version 8?

i believe that SSA GT should take the initiative and give us a rather
detailed
statement of what the SSA GT organization looks like and what we should
expect
from it. as i mentioned before, the silence has been noticeable.

you claim to be 'just a techie' but somehow i suspect that you have a few
informal lines of communication that you use to pas on this request. try it,
let's see how customer oriented SSA GT really is.  this is in no way a
personal
attack. i do appreciate  the information that you offer this forum. but
let's
get the three piece suit guts involved!

sincerely

RE: Is it possible to crack the BPCS Key logic?Hello,

Sorry to bore some of you with yet one more response on this threadbare
thread,
but if certain people keep tossing out lies and/or accusations about SSA GT
and
various contract legalities, they really should be corrected to avoid
confusion.
I have a feeling the people doing these alarmist postings are NOT actual
BPCS
customers but are some very recently soured grapes. (Note the lack of full
names
and/or company affiliation on their posts).

If you have legal questions, accusations or rumors to confirm I suggest you
contact the contractual departments (Finance and Administration) at SSA GT
in
Chicago. The main number is 312-258-6000. Take option 8 and you will go
directly
to someone who can answer your questions. Please leave the techies on this
list
group alone. The people montitoring this list from SSA GT are mostly
programmers, HelpLine, field application consultants and various R&D
managers -
not the contracts department or lawyers. If you want legal answers, I
suggest
you phone that department. This list server is NOT an official means of
communication between SSA GT and our customers. Opinions express by SSA GT
employees on this list are just that.

Unless you were otherwise informed, SSA GT has assumed the contract you had
with
SSA. SSA GT must therefore honor those contracts.

Back to real matters of BPCS software and how it works (or doesn't work or
should work) ....I now return you to your regularly scheduled list
server......

Thanks

Genyphyr Novak
