On another subject, am I the only one that thinks the ITRC website for
MPE/iX patches is difficult to use?  Why are there no dates associated with
the release of the patches (which should be sortable)?  If one wants to
monitor the site for new patches it is nearly impossible.  Any comments or
suggestions?
---------------------------------------------------------
I agree with you that the ITRC is difficult to use, especially since it was
recently "enhanced".  You can no longer get an alphabetic list of all
patches for an O/S to compare with a previous printout to find what's new.
I've asked several times to have the sorted patch list option put back, so
far to no avail.  There is no date criteria also making it harder to find
out what's new.  However if you use the patch notification service you'll
find out whats new/changed each week, and along with the PATCHMAN utility,
life can be a little easier.
