In response to all of the comments about IBM being afraid to change, as
the person who has dealt with numerous customers who have been less than
happy with IBM because we make a change that breaks NON COMFORMANT products,
yes, I do want make the change. When VTAM ships a new function, and old
stuff breaks, it is assumed to be VTAMs fault. When VTAM IS RIGHT, yet
the customer has 10,000 of the "defective" product installed, guess which
product gets to design and implement a change --- easy answer -- VTAM.

And yes, we could add a new knob to SYSDEF to say "send the info", but
we are trying to reduce SYSDEF, not increase it.

SO what I would suggest, if you feel that customers want the info,
is a DLUR option that says "send/nosend" since the
info IS provided to the DLUR. Thoughts?
