I am the author of JUMP, a program to allow VMS users to become other
users, without a password, in a tightly controlled and monitored
manner. I wrote JUMP many years ago and my last update to the program
was some years back to make it available on all three hardware
architectures.

I am interested to know the following information:

-- Who is using JUMP?
-- In what industry?
-- In what type of IT environment?
-- On what hardware architectures?
-- Number of systems on which it is installed
-- Anything else you think I would be interested to know

I would also welcome feedback on the program, including:

-- Things you like :)
-- Things you don't like :(
-- Things you want as enhancements or improvements
-- Things you have changed yourself to enhance or improve the
program (it would be great if you would supply your code)

I must emphasise that this information is purely for my own
information and is not by way of offering to make any changes to the
program. If, however, I can find time to do some work on the program
to incorporate things that are important to you, I will try to do so
(no promises).

Please send your information to the email address in the JUMP
documentation (do not send to the email address listed on this
newsgroup posting as it is a bit-bucket) -- be sure to email me, even
if you post to the newsgroup, as I very rarely monitor the group, I'm
sorry. Anything you provide will be confidential to me alone and I
thank you for your help in this.

If you don't use JUMP (or have not heard of it before), it is
available on Hunter Goatley's superb VMS freeware download site
(thanks, Hunter!).

Cheers,
Jonathan Ridler.
