This is what I got today

Hello Bill,

Thanks you for your patience.

I have attached the response to you concerns from the System i and WDSC
Rational Team below. Please let me know if you have further questions
and or you can send your questions and concerns to (wdscques@xxxxxxxxxx)
as stated in the response and copy me on them.


"Version 7.0 of the WDSc Standard edition development tools contains
exactly the same components as WDSc Standard edition V6.0 and V6.1.
Nothing has been withdrawn or removed. WDSc V7.0 includes the CODE
Designer tool as the vehicle for designing and maintaining green screens
and printer files. The CODE Designer has always provided many
productivity advantages for programmers who use it. It still continues
to provide all of these benefits. The V7.0 announcement did not include
any statement about withdrawal of the CODE product.

In the Version 7.0 release, the new WDSc Designer is included in the
WDSc Advanced Edition version. It is a technology preview only. As with
every Technology Preview that IBM releases, this does not necessarily
represent the final deliverable. The WDSc team within IBM Rational is
still determining how the feature will be delivered in its final form.
In fact, the current packaging strategy for the desktop tools is being
reviewed as we try to find the right solution for our marketplace at the
right price. If you have additional comments, please feel free to send
them to wdscques@xxxxxxxxxx

Your feedback on this announcement is appreciated and will certainly be
considered as we move forward."

It appears to be deliberately vague as to the future. It does not
address the Vista issue either. Sounds like a politician talking.



Thanks
