Two new articles have just been published in the technical library: the first is about making Enterprise Replication easier with the Open Administration tool and the second is about using external tables for data abstraction.

On Tuesday this week the 1st of several worldwide events with the motto Discover the New Face of Informix has taken place in New York City. It seems that it was a huge success.

Bruce Weed wrote a detailed report about the event. Let me just quote a single, but important sentence from my point of view:

The event held in New York City on March 16 was successful by all accounts.  First let me take you through some of the details, facts and figures.  Over 75 people were at the event, which more then filled out the room we had reserved for the event.  Rob Thomas (VP of Business Development) kicked off the event with an overview of our new strategy and positioning.  He started off with an unusual story about Edwin Booth saving Todd Lincolns life, see the link below.  One point out of this story is that you can not always predict the future by judging from past events.
