Informix start selling Fourgen tools too without success, even though IMHO these were good tools at that moment. I think that Wingz, Fourgen tools were good enough for selling, but Informix failed in selling for unknown reasons. I have tested 4js and honestly it does the work, but the current prices are not affordable enough, that's why I think that is didn't catch a good customer base as the existing 4GL one. So, I hope that this time Informix with the new staff realize that there are a great customer base of 4GL waiting for a tool as 4js, but at lower price than the current one.
