Bummer Jon. I was looking forward to the update especially after reviewing the "wish list" for additions.

This world of ours is becoming such a drag. For every eager and willing person wanting to contribute, there is a lawyer, or a short-sighted manager, who knows how to stop good ideas and good intentions. Even the Open Source world is being infiltrated by these types. BIG sigh.....

I really appreciate your contributions Jon (even without indemnification!). I'll take 'em, even if IBM doesn't.

IBM are working towards an update of the Redbook - but I will not be part of
it.  IBM's lawyers wanted me to indemnify them against any and all legal
actions taken against them as a result of any material I brought to the
book.  Yeah - right.  I'm going to work for nothing _and_ hold them
harmless!

I really hope that it will happen - but the only people who take part will
either be IBMers or people who don't read contracts carefully enough!
