Re: Info Center Rant

Ditto what Leif said.

I've complained about this so many times that I'm tired of talking about it.
As far as I can tell, the overwhelming majority of the user community hates
that thing, but it hasn't stopped IBM from persuing it with dogged
determination.

At this point, I just wish they'd finish it already. It's been years in the
making, yet still I can't find most of the information that I'm looking for
in it. I have to bounce around between the infocenter, bookmanager library,
and individual LPP websites in order to find anything of value.

And don't even get me started on the use of PDF for documentation....
