Informix Helps Clean up London
An IBM software distributor posted a link to a case study about Informix being used by a UK ISV for London borough cleaning. Tony Sequeira and Neil Truby mocked it as advertising. The poster replied it was meant to counter the lack of UK Informix literature and show Informix is alive. Art Kagel praised the effort. Promotional announcement with banter.

A common complaint we hear from customers is that there is no UK-based literature about Informix so we are working with business partners, and IBM, to address this. We're trying to get the message out, particularly to the UK market, that Informix is alive and well. If this classes as an advertisement, then yes - we are advertising Informix.
