Re: What is the current application that replaces the old WDS

Uhhhhh... so what are these Windows based products that are shipping with V7R1
lableled "Rational Developer for i" version 7.5 ???

This entire thread just confirms what I have been thinking for a while, nobody really
has a complete understanding of what IBM is doing.

I have NEVER known of IBM to change/modify a license agreement on any older products
and not providing the customer with the "next" or "upgraded" version of the product.

All of the thousands of customers that have/had/still have the old WDS(seu,pdm,sda,etc,etc)
are screwed by IBM ??? I find that hard to believe.
