Hi,
You all want to see Informix in the press, so help IIUG achieving this goal by
sending the following information to me:
Name of journalist,
e-mail,
name of newspaper.
Thanks

I'm not sure what you want; make your selection from the following list:
1. Informix is in the press and you want to know who wrote the article
and where;
2. Request a specific journalist write an article about Informix in a
particular paper.

I'm curious that you don't know who to contact. Any good computer magazine will
do, simply contact their editor. Or write the article yourself and submit it.
I'm also curious that you would be doing the work that IBM, and the work that
Informix people at IBM should be doing. Of course it would be a shocker that
those lazy lumps of shit would do anything to promote the product. That would
be a news story by itself.

Hi,
You're completely wrong.
IIUG has started a communications program and we send our Press Releases to
the press. By "our press releases", I mean "our press releases", not the
ones from IBM, not the ones from our sponsors, not the ones from Oracle.
IIUG is doing some communications to enhance its visibility in the Informix
world and among the Informix users. Nothing else.
Now, I need contacts, of course, I could send it blindly to any editor of
any news paper. Sure, the Tampa Gazette or whatever will be very thankful to
me to send Informix news.
I need contacts within the IT press. As I live in France, I did the work of
digging for journalists here and found quite a few of them. Now, I also read
some of the foreign press, but surely not the UK press or the German
press... I have friends in Taiwan and I know nothing about their editors.
I was hoping that this community could help me build a bigger network to
help promote our organization.
That's why I need:
> > Name of journalist,
> > e-mail,
> > name of newspaper.
(and basically, in the context of this program, I don't care what IBM is
doing).
Any help would be great.
Thanks.

3. Propagate IIUG press releases to more and more journalists (close to your

Thanks, the idea is to build a full press room for IIUG, we need more
(specifically the logos are not great and we need other graphical items),
but we are working on it to make the world better :)...

Not sure why iiug board members in the states can't do this if they are
sincerely interested in marketing/promoting informix. But all they would
have to do is pick up a magazine and flip through the pages to find out who
to contact.....not rocket science here....
CIO Magazine:
Technology contacts Christopher Lindquist, clindqu...@cio.com
Thomas Wailgum, twail...@cio.com
!!! Other contacts that may be interested in Oracle/Peoplesoft supporting
IDS Vers 10 for tools release 8.49 !!!
Christopher Koch, c...@cio.com
Ben Worthen, bwort...@cio.com
ComputerWorld Eric Lai (425)367-4359
If I see another IT type magazine laying around I'll let you know.
However, all I ask is a regular report on what efforts you or other iiug
board members are making/taking with this type of info.

Excellent!
Now, how about taking the 90-day timeout feature out of the download for
Informix. I'm excited about Informix, interested in the product, so I go
to download it like DB2.
I noticed DB2 does not have the 90-day timeout. I want the full download
for Informix just like DB2, no timeout, same thing as if I bought it. Do
I have the IIUG to thank for the 90-day timeout?

My understanding is the opposite: about a year ago the IIUG and IBM withdrew
free downloads for IDS because they *didn't* have the 90-day bomb which is
standard for products emenating from IBM. They understandably didn;t want
to retro-fit the bomb to old realeases but did include it in later 9.40, and
10 developments and reinstated the trial versions.
If you're saying that DB2 has had the bomb removed - that's news to me!

DB2 never had the bomb.
IIUG still offers 9.3/9.4 on Linux / Windows.

Are you sure?
The IDS trial download disappeared without explanation from IBM site, and
Stuart Litel was asked to do the same for the ones on the IIUG site.
When pressed the explanation was that they didn;t contain the 90-day bomb
and was thus not consistent with DB2.

DB2 always had a message pop up every time you started DB2, counting the
days down from 90. Now, no DB2 build I work with in the lab ever lasts
90 days, so I don't know whether DB2 simply stops working or just keeps
nagging after 90 days.
Cheers

I know. I just "admitted" that my DB2 uptime is < 90 days ;-)
But IDS wouldn't help me. My Windows uptime is so much shorter.
