Re: Identifying and finding our WDSCi install DVDs/CDs

Or, even allow copies to be ordered at *reasonable* prices?

Last night I attended our user group meeting in which Claus Weiss presented
his excellent Websphere spiel.

Now my boss has tasked me with finding the WDSCi install DVDs/CDs so that we
can play with the editor and debugger.  Note that I am on the development
side, so I have no access to the box(es) that have all of the OS/400 install
goodies in them, including, I presume, the WDSCi disks.  So, Monday morning
I will start making phone calls trying to locate them.  It would be nice to
know what I am asking others to look for.

BTW, we are at OS/400 v5r3.  Since we have the compilers and SEU, SDA, etc.,
should we have automatically received the WDSCi install disks?  Or would we
have needed to order it separately?  Claus explained that the latest version
has a bright red sticker on the package holding the WDSCi install disks that
implored the person reading it to forward the package to the development
team.  Would that necessarily been the case (the red sticker) for the v5r3
shipment?

(Suggestion to IBM: Perhaps the WDSCi install disks should *not* necessarily
ship to the location where the rest of the OS/400 install package goes.
Instead, allow customers to specify a second address for the WDSCi install
disks to be sent.)

TIA,
