I AGREE it is fine here. Personally if it stays here I do not have to go look for it in yet another location.
This is my System i source !!!!!! :-)

I think the discussions fit just fine here also... I don't even monitor the
other list, and would bet many others don't either. It's not nuts and
bolts technical, but this topic (especially the licensing portion) has a
bearing on system design and selection, which is a technical concern.

I respectfully disagree. David can clobber me if required but
discussions about i5 pricing, licensing, etc DO fit here. They go to the
heard of the platform. If you disagree, which of the midrange lists
would you think this discussion best fits on?

And if you don't believe that IBM pays attention to what happens on this
list you would be wrong. Do they make corporate decisions based on out
rants and ramblings? Of course not. But the members of this group
constitute a valuable bank of opinion about System i and you can be sure
that IBM pays attention to what is said here.
