I agree with you. Did you put in a DCR for the DCR process? Just kidding.

I've done many DCR over the years.
Some, if simple were implemented with either a PTF or possibly a new dtaara
(BRMS) or change to an existing dtaara (AJS).
Others, if complicated, are on a list for review.
And, if no one else asks, will probably stay on the list. (Improve DUPTAP
performance).
It would be nice if we could all know what others were asking for.
A site to see DCR requests, I already asked for this.
Also asked if we could see PMRs and there resolutions
Not going to happen, for either.

Excellent!!
I know I have entered requirements and voted for others. Sometimes you get
contacted Before the decision with questions or for discussion. They may
combine requirements into one that's better. And sometimes, as example my
latest, they get whacked from the sky despite a fair bit of support. Turns
out this one was technically impossible to do! (Who knew?)
Clearly as you suggest things DO come out without specific requirements
because IBM does watch the industry but if they know what we all want they
do indeed listen!
So now go out there and dream up some cool stuff to submit!!

I see your point in "don't complain if you didn't let IBM know what is

In the mid of 2015 I submitted an extra DCR for it, I must admit that
I stepped too late on the "vote" trains.
My believe was that it would be "natural" for IBM to bring this DB2
feature to the i platform, so I did not act earlier.
And I'm glad with what is brought now by 7.3, and hope they willl
extend the temporal features soon.

Did you submit a reimbursement to IBM for this function prior to
2012? If not did you vote for an existing requirement for this function?
If not can you understand why this is one reason that it wasn't
provided sooner?
Seriously unless we ask IBM for specific enhancements we will get the
things that others ask for!!

Today IBM announced IBM i 7.3.
Great enhancements are in it, there is also the great feature for
temporal tables, which is fulfilling long-cherished wishes of some of
us.
