    Hi, Romy, I saw the announcement as well, looks like a target of Q3 this year, but I've not seen any notices of an open beta for it yet.

    Hello,  Thank you for the interest in a z/OS Beta for 3.1. Unfortunately we do not provide an option for an open beta.  

    We do continue to look for sponsor users that could allow you to focus on a specific project. You can participate in a variety of activities such as design reviews and provide user experience feedback on existing tasks and tools, you choose your level of involvement.

    Some benefits include previewing and influencing upcoming functions and products to ensure we meet your user needs.

    If this is of interest, please contact zos@ibm.com with your information and request to be invited to our IBM z/OS Sponsor User Programs List website. 

    Thank you.

    Hi Romy,

    The z/OS Remote Development Program offering includes Generally Available (GA) versions of z/OS only.  z/OS 3.1 is expected to be added as an option under the Remote Development Program shortly after it becomes Generally Available.

    If you are interested in IBM Early Test Programs, you can read about how they work at the following URL:

    Are there any updates on when z/OS 3.1 will be available for RDP customers on the Dallas system?

    Thanks

    Same question for the zPDT - when will z/OS 3.1 be ready?
