I don't see why you should reclaim your activation groups every time.  I'd
be interested in hearing reasons why this is a good idea unless your
changing library lists all the time (see my example from the earlier mail).

No, because if needbe you can reclaim QILE.  You can't reclaim the DAG
without ending the job.

That's the way I've done it.  I put multible subprocedures in modules that
are related.  Like my String service program is created from the String
module that has multiple string manipulation subprocedures.
