That's a very interesting press release. So what does this say about the future of Jworks? If Informix is going to align w/ Symantec for Visual Cafe, why would we need Jworks? This is all getting very confusing for prospective developers of client apps and Informix customers. So how does one decide over New Era/Jworks/Visual Cafe? With all of the Java announcements, the RIP writing seems to be on the wall for New Era. Does Visual Cafe do all that Jworks is supposed to do? If so, why choose Jworks? I suppose the SuperTable editor would be one plus. Cosmo Lee
