It sure doesn't make Tivoli look good to have major defects in
just about every new level made available to customers.  To put
a software level onto the FTP site and then have to withdraw it
is more than embarassing.

I recall the VM product being in similar straits in the mid-80s,
with entrenched habits and procedures and attitudes creating
perpetually troublesome software.  Finally, IBM put a new product
manager in place who had vision and initiative: he completely
turned things around.  That's what TSM needs.  They still haven't
learned that "same old" is no good.
