refresh pack V6.0.1 Announced

Hopefully I can provide some clarity, or at least not confuse the issue 
anymore :) 

- WDSc 6.0.1 pre-reqs Rational Web Developer 6.0.1 (remember that WDSc 
includes inside of it Rational Web Developer).  RWD 6.0.1 is already 
available via the Rational Product Updater.  If you want to get a 
headstart then install RWD 6.0.1 today so you won't need to do this when 
WDSc 6.0.1 comes out.

- The total size of WDSc 6.0.1 if you include RWD 6.0.1 is > 1 Gig.  Most 
of that is from RWD 6.0.1. 

- WDSc 6.0.1 will be available electronically (via the Rational Product 
Updater) on February 14th.

- Sometime shortly after Feb 14th we will make the update available as an 
separate download and as an iSeries PTF.  We are making the update 
available as an iSeries PTF so you can order the PTF and get the CD(s) 
shipped to you.  When you apply the PTF it will just copy the update image 
to the IFS.  You can then install the update from the IFS.

- Any other mention of CDs in the announcement was probably referring to 
6.0.  If you don't already have 6.0 then you first need to order those CDs 
via your business partner using the refresh codes for 5722-WDS.

Hope this helps a bit.

Do you have any idea of what size the update will be? 

>>> batthish@xxxxxxxxxx 02/01/06 8:45 AM >>>
6.0.1 will be delivered via  Update manager, in the same way 6.0.0.x
service of WDSC
I do not believe there will be any CDs.

I am told there will be an FTD download version, but it will not be
available until later.  I will post once it is available.

Hope this clarifies things.
