[WDSCI-L] service pack handling

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

Any chance that the fix packs for WDSC can be part of a group ptf?  This 
would make it a lot easier to upgrade clients.  Group ptf's are listed at:
http://as400service.rochester.ibm.com/supporthome.nsf/Document/10000031

Also, is it possible for these fix packs to be loaded on the iSeries 
automatically by downloading a ptf, (or a CD if it's too big) to the 
iSeries?  Then the client can just check the server to see if there is an 
update available?  Much like iSeries Access does, provided you pointed the 
'Service' tab of iSeries Access properties to download from a drive on 
your iSeries.

Right now, the web sites pertaining to WDSC don't seem to allude to 
anything like this.

There I gave you a couple of different models:  group ptf, and the iSeries 
Access way.  Will either work?
