Hi Everyone,
I was just made aware that moving forward post PAW 104 there will not be any more early notification of features with PAW releases for PAoC customers. I'm not sure this is the right approach and hoping to see if we can reverse this decision. This advance notification enables us to notify our users of any impactful feature changes that are pushed overnight which we do not have the option to preview or test. I had several issues with the latest PAW 104 release on cloud and hoping to get ahead of problems with our users.
Also, IBM has not yet started to use the new status page for PAW Deployment Notifications, even though the end date for the old status page was listed as May 15th (New Status Page for Planning Analytics on Cloud)

With the migration to the new status page for PAoC, I'm unable to see the scheduled upgrades for PAW and no longer able to see details outside of the Data Center and PAW. Previously, I could see all of the separate services and system status which helps us to identify issues prior to needing to open a case with support. Is this something on IBM's roadmap to include?

On the latest PAW 104 maintenance notification it looks like we've lost the preview into new features which we typically saw before. Will this continue to be something provided, as I use this preview information to inform our end users of any changes they can expect to see.
