This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Z Software products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

We have no plans to produce a 3270 user interface. The CICS Explorer is our strategic user interface and we have announced that the WUI is functionally stabilised. As well as running from a client machine, the CICS Explorer can be deployed using Java WebStart to run it inside a browser. The CICS Explorer can already be configured to use the CMCI to connect to a single CICS region (SMSS) rather than a CICSPlex. Yes this does today require CPSM libraries to be added to the CICS JCL.
Longer term we may look at integrating libraries and perhaps collapsing CPSM required regions.
Attachment (Description): 3270 interface. Samples with three pages as described.
