Re: IBM Rational Developer for i http://9.8.0.6 fixpack is now available!

Well ... since it was a time-out error I decided to try again.

Sure enough, it worked this time. So I guess it was an IBM server problem.

As others have reported, if you check for updates again, there are a couple of weird ones listed that never go away.

In the absence of any word to the contrary, I'm just ignoring them!
