+## Engagement with IBM ZOS Team
+
+Continuing to try to get engagement with IBM on next release test access.  Will use Marist and/or Dallas Test systems.
+Will hopefully establish TDM (Technical Disclosure) and ICN access.  
+
+## Work with ZOSMF for better, simplified future
+
+Participation with ZOSMF team to end a near-decade of dysfunction.  Goals are to explore major simplification of back-end services while retaining compatibility with Zowe.  Considering APIML-like features in ZOSMF itself.   Maybe having ZSS server potentially as plugins to ZOSMF.   
 
 ## HTTP Authentication Refactoring and Client Cert Support [#631](https://github.com/zowe/zss/issues/631)
 
 The main work of supporting R_usermap is done, but this work exposed an issue in ZOS ESM security implementation.  The security context (ACEE) that is used to authorize calls uses the server/ASCB context rather than impersonated/thread/TCB context.  TSS and ACF2 implmented this in a different manner than RACF and implicity, SAF.  So there is the hope that this issue will be settled in Q4 202
 
 Phase 2 is a long-overdue refactoring of zss httpserver authentication into plugins.  There are auth features for HTTP Basic, JWT, Certificates, SSH Tunnels (single user mode), etc.   This code is intertwined in ways that is getting hard to support.   This must be done in Zowe 3.0 to make a long term investment against achieving notoriety in CVE's (!).

+## LPA Module Reuse in ZIS (Q4/Q1 ???) [#405](https://github.com/zowe/zowe-common-c/issues/405)

+Use of shared memory (LPA) for Zowe modules can consume too much precious 31 bit common storage and better reuse logic is planned.

 ## Embedded JavaScript Enhancements [#626](https://github.com/zowe/zss/issues/626)
 
 The embedded javascript feature has allowed almost all ZWE code to be uplifted from shell scripts and frequent calls to start up Node to a running well-structured TypeScript.  A few gaps persist and should be closed.

 ## QJS (Embedded JS updates) [#628](https://github.com/zowe/zss/issues/628)
 
 QuickJS overdue for a rebase.   (Sean this might not be true).   Also the tracing and debuggability of QJS errors needs improvement.  Error's in the QJS pcode interpreter are hard to understand.   Ebcdic vs UTF8 issues still persist.   Improvements are needed.
