Why is RRDI not listed in the Downloads page?

I think it's wise to have RRDI listed in the download page. I can find it using a search, but not via the menus. So it seems not to be there.
Furthermore I think the other products RTC,RQM,RRC should reference that page.

You can find the Rational Reporting for Development Intelligence (RRDI) downloads here: https://jazz.net/downloads/RRDI/

You will find a link to RRDI 2.0 on the "Optional Programs" page of the Rational Quality Manager 4.0 Downloads page at URL https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-quality-manager/releases/4.0?p=optionalPrograms.

Perhaps we're suggesting RRDI deserves its own "Product" page to improve its accessibility?

Yes, that is strange. I had to use Google to find the RRDI page. Not exactly the way to encourage usage :-0

I agree with this as well. No way to find the RRDI page unless you do a search. So no way to know if you are downloading the latest version.

Maybe because it is a free tool?

RRDI is not listed on our Downloads page because it is not a separate Rational offering or a product. It can only be used in support of a consuming product like RTC, RQM, RRC, so we link to it as optional software from those download pages.

For example, you can find a link to it from this RQM download page:

Seth, could RRDI be added to category "Other Tools" on the Jazz Downloads page, i.e., URL https://jazz.net/downloads/.

We have considered this option, but there are lots of factors we are considering for how we present this piece of software.
