I too am a PeopleSoft Developer (new from PowerBuilder) and have wondered
why there aren't any News groups for PeopleSoft. Is it because of the
propriety nature of the software?

I doubt if you find a lot of information on the www.peoplesoft.com (customer
connection). The way to find out is to call support. If they say itοΏ½do it.
That has been my experience with PeopleSoft.
