Informix stops selling Version 5.02
Posted in 1994
I just talked to some folks at Informix sales re an order we have for 5.02. She informed me that the product was ***SO*** buggy that they have pulled it from distribution. She said that a few platforms have already been re-released, but that it was not yet out again for my HP's. This is a little bit alarming to me, since I have two or three production systems with customers that have already been upgraded to 5.02. I haven't seen any major problems, though. Does anyone know **exactly** what was so bad about the product that they had to pull it? Do we need to back down our upgrades? How about it, Informix insiders, what's the story?
