New PTF ordering method.

I like the new method IBM has for ordering PTF's over the Internet.  It's a 
start.  The climax will be when they drop the GUI and allow us to order PTF's 
over the Internet from our 400's themselves.  All of our 400's have a lan card. 
 All of them could ftp remote sites to download info.  We have a T1 connection 
to the Internet.  What's holding them back?  It's not like we live in a time of 
high unemployement and we need to employ people to click on icons when we could 
have a batch setup to do this at night when the systems and the network are not 
as busy.

When I use the Internet to download PTF's the WRKPRB is incomplete.  For 
example should I see:
PTF ID   Requested  PTF Save File
SF47542  No         No           
SF49686  No         Yes          

When I request SF49686?  See PMR 85723,500.  By the way SF47542 is a coreq that 
was already on the system.  My question is why does SF49686 say requested No.
