Claus,

Thank you for your reply.

The announcement says it will be available electronically on September 27. 
 Does that mean there will be some kind of installer that can be 
downloaded, as opposed to waiting for a CD or DVD? 

When you reference the Update Manager, are you saying that starting with 
5.1 you will start using it to deliver fixes, or are you saying that we 
will be able to use the Update Manager in 5.01 to update to 5.1? 

For what it is worth, I would like to see more "smaller" updates start to 
be made available in the future.  A good example, is that problem in the 
RPGLE Outline View that causes a crash.  Once that was identified, it 
would have been nice if an update could have been made available by Update 
Manager.  I do now that it is not always as easy as that sounds, but that 
should be the goal.

Mark

Hi Mark,
WDSC V5.1 is considered a new release, which means that you get a set of
CD's and a DVD to install the new product release, this is not considered 
a
fixpack. Since we have more experience with UPDATE manager now, applying
fixes to the new release should be straight forward and you will not have
to go thru a set of instructions to apply a  fix.
As before WSSD  is shipping  with  WDSC  and WSAD is shipping with WDSC
advanced.

Also as before, if you buy WSSD or WSAD as separate products then the
iSeries plugins of WDSC will be added to WSSD or WSAD.
Which also means if you have bought the WSSD or WSAD licenses separately
from WDSC you can upgrade these as early as they are made available.
However the WDSC license is for one package and with it  you can't upgrade
the base products and then wait for the iSeries plugins to be delivered
later you will have to wait until WDSC is available to get the upgrade for
the complete package. So if you want the new versions of WSSD or WSAD 
early
you would have to buy separate licenses for them.

To Joe's  point about upgrading for OS/400 V5R1 customers, he has a good
point that there is only a small window of time to accomplish this 
upgrade,
from October 17 to November 21, November 21 is the date that  OS/400 V5R1
gets withdrawn from marketing and then you can't order the WDS upgrade
features anymore. We have highlighted this fact in the announcement letter
to make OS/400 V5R1 customers aware of this window so they can go ahead 
and
use this upgrade opportunity in that timeframe.

I hope this information helps to clarify the announcement
