I am not defending their decisions, I am simply trying to help people
potentially make use of the tool.

I also use multiple development libraries, so I create multiple iSeries
Projects if/when I want to use that feature.  Actually, our product
TurnOver just does it all for me automatically.

Our product makes all of this a lot easier to use because we have a lot of
information and "context" in our product that IBM doesn't have available to
them, such as library lists, commands to execute etc.  Plus we can load our
lists from a database so it runs faster.

That's pretty presumptuous of you!  Seriously, people have multiple shared
development libraries, too.  We always did.  We didn't have separate
libraries for every individual programmer's tasks, since often they were
working in a team on a single task.

And who thought this was a good idea?  Why should Vern have to pull from
one
place and return to another?  Who thought it was their job to tell him how
to do his job?

Overriding question: why should he have to?

The tool should help the programmer, not dictate his actions.  As soon as
the tool starts telling me what to do and when, it is no longer a tool, it
is a set of rules, and it will usually have problems outside of the
laboratory.  Trust me, I've dealt with this time and again.  That's why
every product I've ever designed lets you decide where your libraries are
and what they are used for.

Joe
