You can't really seriously be saying to change every line of code, or internal names, that use an old convention? Really? There is a history, and it is not reasonable to throw it all away. Just how many bugs do you want to introduce into the system? Good money thrown at bad ideas, IMHO. Where is the ROI?

I guess I'm coming to a place of recognizing that not all references will be changed, and that I should direct my issues thereto to IBM, not here in this all too public forum.

OK - call me a Trevorite - at least I'm not a complete Luddite now!

I need another song!

Aww came on, IBM has never been good at actually rebranding something.

V6R1 ships ships with "System i Access". The HMC even at latest
service packs still calls it i5/OS.

There are still many parts of V6R1 where it says "OS400" or "AS/400",
for example in /QIBM or in the PPP Logfiles.

System i Access is located in a directory called CA400.

etc. etc.
