You say that 'I've noticed some bugs already, so I will stick with 7.1
for now'.

If you believe that they are real bugs, it would help us all if you would
open an Electronic Service Request so that these bugs could be
addressed/fixed.

Thanks.

Well I just downloaded an installed the trial from
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/downloads/r/rdi/?S_TACT=105AGX28&S_CMP=DLMAIN



You can select a language, but the languages are listed in Chinese.
English is the 6th one down :)

I installed on an older machine instead of overlaying my existing
install, not sure what I will do about the license yet. I upgraded to
7.5.02 using the Installation Manager.

It all depends on how you originally licensed the product.

If you went through Passport Advantage (bought it as a 'Rational'
product), then you have an entilement in Passport Advantage and can
download the latest there.

If you bought it through your Business Partner as a licensed
product/feature code, then you have to get it through the BP again.

After a couple of months trying to get my update to 7.5 I actually gave
up for now. I wasted way too many hours on the phone with IBM,
Rational, my BP, and the Pope trying to figure out just where my update
shoulde come from -- and in the end even the BP said he was having
troubles and would get back to me in a week. That was well over a month
ago now.

From monitoring this list, I have seen people with a few complaints
about 7.5 and no one mentioned and new 'must have' features in 7.5, so I
will just stay on 7.1 for now.

If I am missing something great in 7.5, please let me know and I will
get back on the phone with my BP...

Good luck,
David
