On this CD update many of our enhancements were the direct result of you, our users, submitting Requests for Enhancement (RFEs) through our
RFE portal. Most notably were the requests for an “About” feature in ISPF3270 and enhanced Java reporting. Remember, if you have an idea for a request, we encourage you to submit it so we can include it in future CD updates.
We’ll even walk you through the creation of the RFE, just drop a comment below or email me directly. In fact, just this past week we assisted one of our European banking customers with submitting an RFE. And while you’re in the portal be sure to check out the most recent RFEs too. There you can vote on your favorites and add RFEs to your watch list as well.
