RE: Max Spool files

Mark,

A number of new job attributes like SPLFACN and ASPGRP have made it in
there lately.  I think that their plate is way full.   When I see the
amount of money that IBM let their customers squander on getting updated
software (from vendors other than IBM) because of the number of libraries
incident, despite the fact that they gave us two relatively simple
(although not compatible) workarounds (one for V5R1, the other for V5R2),
I'm amazed.

>From a TAA Tool perspective, the number of customers who had let their
software go stale since they want to RISC, and then turned around in V5R2
and bought the new version was astounding.
