Jim,

If you don't take the connect to your machine then it has to send
you the entire package. What Paul is alluding to is that if I ask for the
latest cumulative package, that should be an off-the-shelf download which is
ready (when not selecting to connect to your iSeries and look at what you
have already installed). I shouldn't have to wait 30 minutes for this to
get put together.

I agree with Paul, this is needed.

Pete

I agree Paul. That would be nice to do. There are those of us who have
suggested this in the past however our voices have not been heard very
well. Perhaps we can put in a requirement with the CAAC, which I would
be willing to do, however I would want to know if others feel this is a
benefit, or hinderence to downloading the PTFs. Keep in mind that if
IBM packages the groups for any machine, the downloads would be larger.

What say the group?

While we're on the subject--

Is there any reason why the latest Cume package and Groups can't be
pre-assembled, ready for -anyone- to download, without having My Very
Own Copy prepared for me? If I'm willing to take the full package
(including PTFs I may already have), I'd have half of it (maybe)
downloaded before the server can build a custom version Just For Me.

I usually take the full version anyway so I can copy it to our 2nd
machine, and I'm sure others do as well.
