Re: [IBMiOSS] RFE: GNU tar for PASE

Hi John,

That's quite possible some would consider it wasteful. I think there's so
much to learn during the journey that would set us up for a solid future.
My hope is that in a few years time we'll have 50+ IBMiOSS people at expert
level that are tweeting and coding their brains out doing crazy cool things
with IBMiOSS.

I'd prefer all open source is either provided by IBM 5733OPS or via the

appreciate Perzl's efforts; but they do need to just be a stepping stone
and not a destination.

I happen to agree with all of that, but I was wondering if perzl.org
is already a destination for some people. For all I know, there is an
established AIX community who views perzl.org as their canonical
repository, and they want it to live on indefinitely. And if that's
the case, then some (even in the midrange community) might consider
efforts to rebuild any already-working-on-PASE-as-is perzl packages to
be wasteful.

Just putting it out there.
