I don't think you could have heard rumors about the IBM TCP/IP for MVS
product.  IBM TCP/IP for MVS was announced 9/88, and will not be
generally available until 6/30/89.

If you do install the product and find something that does not work,
you can contact the TCP/IP group at the T.J. Watson Research Center.
We have an 800 number (published in the product announcement), and
there is also an IBM TCP forum on BITNET (IBMTCP-L@CUNYVM) which the
developers listen and contribute to.
