I have many customers and clients that use AFP, so it's good to hear it's
not true.

Then again, a lot of them haven't made the jump to v7rx either. :) So
even if it was true, it wouldn't really apply.

Just got an email from Help Systems saying that AFP is not supported on
IBM i 7.3 - this is not the case!

What is no longer supported is the 5770-AF1 product, Advanced Function
Printing __Utilities__ - my emphasis on __Utilities__ a la Chuck Pence'
newsgroup formatting! :)

There is no indication that the AFP data stream and protocol are no longer
supported - just this and one other tool for designing pages. (InfoPrint
Designer is also no longer supported - I thought that had gone away some
time ago.)

So an unfortunate over-enthusiastic misunderstanding, eh, what?
