I am very pleased to be able to use this, the first CICS eNews of 2009, to announce the coming of CICS Transaction Server for z/OS v4.1. This new version builds on the solid base provided by CICS TS v3.2 and the SupportPacs delivered during 2008, adding non-invasive emission of business events from CICS applications, extending the CICS model with RESTful APIs and Atom feeds to enable the creation of Web 2.0 applications, and supporting the CICS Explorer as the primary user interface for CICS developers, operators, and system programmers.
Follow the link to read the new CICS eNews where you will find more detail on CICS TS v4.1 including links to lots of useful resources including some great new animations, videos, teleconferences, white papers, and much more.

We have started to use social networking sites like YouTube to host some videos, and have a growing community on Facebook - you'll find more details and links in the eNews. If you haven't seen them yet, I encourage you to take a look at these new media. Some people love them, while others loathe them. I'd love to hear your feedback, either way - just write to me at enews@ibm.com.
Dave Andrews - CICS Development Director
Thanks.
