We are about to implement WebFOCUS 7.6.5. I would like to get the Documentation CD. It appears that the latest CD is WebFOCUS/iWay Documentation CD 7.6.4 . Are CDs not updated for each release?

What I really would like to do is download the contents of the CD - I don't need a hard-copy CD. I cannot find a link to download "The WebFOCUS/iWay Documentation CD Version 7 Release 6.4 includes over 50 manuals in PDF and HTMLHelp formats. You can search across all manuals in HTMLHelp format or print an individual manual in PDF format". If the client pays for the software shouldn't the documentation be included with the software licence?

Can I not click on one link to download the whole shebang?

In the past, the documentation has not been updated for each release. There hasn't seemed to be any pattern for WHEN they get updated either, except for at least once for each major version. For 7.1 the docs are 7.1.3. Then you get a summary of new features and summary of fixes document with subsequent releases.

I would be REALLY nice to be able to download the latest docs with one click. When I finally get around to it, it takes a couple hours searching through lists until I gett all of the docs that I consider a "complete" set (and that's just what I need, not necessarily all of them.) If there were a zip file made available with a complete doc set, or maybe a software download with CD functionality and HTML files, that would be very helpful. Doesn't matter that it may be 200 MB - at least I can start it running and come back the next day to have what I need.


Regards,

Darin
