    We have installed Rocket Python 3.7 and ZOAUtils 1.1.1
    Im getting an error when trying to import the utilities into Python. 
    The core modules in ZOAUtils seem to expect Enterprise Python 3.8 / 3.9 though documentation mentions Rocket Python 3.6. 
    Do we need particular versions of Python ZOAUtils  to get this working ?

    $ python

    Hi Jason,

    For as long as I remember Rocket Python worked correctly with ZOAUtils 1.0.x, but since IBM has its own builds of Python new ZOAUtils works with it only.

    Thanks,
    Alex

    Also note Jason that Rocket's Open AppDev solution now includes IBM's Python port and Rocket has ceased investment in our own Python port.  You will need to choose between using an older version of the ZOAUtils or adoption of IBM's Python port.
