When I said in the part snipped that for an organization I wouldn't
trust objects from sources where I didn't have a relation to the
supplier, I have used source modules from the Michmods ( (for IBM MVT)
and CBT (originally stood for Connecticut Bank and Trust) tapes for
MVS (now a web site still providing z/OS tools) and supplied some.
Source can be checked. Objects where the source can't be examined
can't.
