The Hell it is. Speaking as a software provider, it's at least as big of
a pain in the butt for us as it is for end-users.
James,
For most software, V6R1 is a matter of re-translating the programs
either by recompiling source or conversion of observable programs.
You may be in a unique position supporting a mostly MI written
application which may not always use IBM supported APIs. Having worked
with MI myself, I don't need to tell you unsupported interfaces makes
each new OS release a risk in itself. Even more difficult when you try
to support it using only the old hardware you have.
I don't know what V6R1 problems you may be encountering, but your prior
posts indicated you were mostly concerned with distributing observable
code (a decompilation risk).
