Re: Navigator for i vrs. System i Navigator

Second the PTF groups!

We loaded i 7.2 on the COMMON Lab server on the Friday before COMMON (release day). Because I can't get my fingers to type 7.2 I accidentally downloaded the HTTP group into the 7.1 folder so it didn't get applied.

When the IBM Navigator for i server wouldn't even come up I asked Tim (who was there of course) to take a look. Within seconds he said: "Get current on the HTTP group!" and of course that fixed it.

And again, I can't overemphasize that we need to get the latest HTTP
group ptf, to get the latest stuff in web-based Navigator - they are
also actively working on the interface and on performance.

So keep getting those group PTFs!

There are actually three things in the Database area the team is

the SQL scripts is one of them. I was assured by Tim Rowe (who owns
Navigator at IBM) that his team is actively working on these things and
hopes they will be delivered via PTF at the least this year. He

that in multiple sessions at COMMON as well. As optimistic as Tim
sounded I
think this summer might be a good bet, but he did not say that, it's me
interpreting.

Understood, and thanks for the note.
