Actually, I didn't read it that way. Which newsgroup do you mean by the way?
It started off as a "merits" debate but pretty quickly, from an Informix newsgroup perspective anyway, moved into a debate about the extent to which IBM is likely to be successful in retaining the Informix users who decide to abandon Informix. For sure some strong views have been expressed about IBM as a company, and its database strategy, but is that so bad? Received on Thu Sep 18 2003 - 15:15:58 CEST
