RE: Any new RPG features in V5R3 ?

["Bob Cozzi" <cozzi@xxxxxxxxx>]

So who cares? 
NDA's are not what they used to be, when you actually learned about upcoming
stuff far in advance of when it was being publicized. Today, virtually
everyone knows just about everything major coming out, and what we don't
know about, we probably don't care about. And certainly nobody (i.e. IBM
competitors) are going to incorporate cool, new RPG IV enhancements into
their products because somebody said "Hey, they %TRIMR built-in now allows
you to specify the character or characters you want to delete." 
The other thing that's curious to me is, why do you care if someone breaks
their non-discloser? Perhaps you're just letting them know that they may
have violated it, as a courtesy to them. Oh well.
Except for users of the new convergence machine (combined iSeries and
pSeries) that might require V5.3, how quickly will anybody move to V5R3?  
I would guess it will be 2006 before at least 50% of the install base as
moved, so V5.3 is a non-issue, to most in my opinion.

And you may have violated the ND by posting this message!
