For starters "Open source" generally doesn't have support...



1. Open source zip/unzip has been around for 30 years and is eminently
reliable.
2. Open source is supported by the issue trackers in most, if not all,
source repositories.
3. There's tremendous support for open source on IBM i in the community,
with architects of the offering from within IBM participating, in
particular, this mailing list and Ryver IBMiOSS Forum.
4. MSPs/ISPs/Consultants such as myself support you for a reasonable fee.
5. IBM has a support offering for open source.

Generally, open source on IBM i has great support.
