Re: Is RDi ready for prime time?

Unfortunately, I've entered several requests on the referenced DCR page. I
always get a very nice e-mail telling me IBM has received my request and I
should hear back from someone within 90 days (or something like that).
Then eternity goes by and I don't hear a thing. It's one of the things
that I have a hard time believing. I think IBM is a good company. They're
very big, but my they are run pretty well for an organization of its size.
However my experience with the Design Change Request process is not very
impressive. IBM has a broken process and they need to fix it. I guess I
probably should file a formal complaint at the Sam Palmisano link about
this, too.

Thanks Buck. I will be submitting my DCR soon. So that this is a

concerted

effort from the developer community, is there some common naming or

detail

that we all can use to get the attention at IBM we need? I assume this
would fit in the problem area of "Dev. tools/Utilities". Any hints to

help

make this an issue that IBM will consider strongly, and not just ignore?

I believe that a Design Change Request is the way to do it.
