Hi,

I for one miss the old adsm.org - I enjoyed looking at the scripts, add ons,
and archives in a simple - usable way - I feel as frustrated with the site
now as everyone else does with the IBM/Tivoli site - there are no options
under options - no links to the helpful aids and sites we could find so
easily before ... So - I guess we all are in agreement - we hate change if
it is not for the better!!!
