am writing compatible code for it.
Aaron:
Can you clarify whether you were asking specifically about
upgrading? or was the question more about keeping up with
maintenance contracts so that upgrading is available?
In many cases, there's little reason to "upgrade". If everything's
working fine, the main reason to upgrade might be nothing more than
to stay just above IBM's support cutoff point. In many other cases,
it's worth upgrading in order to take advantage of the cheapest
performance enhancements available. It's almost always cheaper to
get better performance through an entitled software upgrade than
through a purchased hardware upgrade for example.
In any case, actually doing an upgrade is not quite the same issue
as keeping the _right_ to do an upgrade.
Which one are you primarily interested in?
