RE: Copybooking PRs

[Kurt Anderson <kurt.anderson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok, I'm glad I'm not alone in not subscribing to the single repository of prototypes. 

After reading the response of what people do and why, I feel comfortable that the method I'm using isn't entirely against the grain.  (Not to say other methods are wrong.)

Thanks for the responses,
Kurt

I put all the prototypes for a single service program into one source member.  This way they are logically grouped together.

So if I have a service program 'IMENV', I have a copy book 'IMENVPR'.
