Replying again, as my mail bounced from the IIUG gateway.. > Where can I get a "developer edition" of 11.10.TC2W2? I don't like time-limited versions ;) Stay away from 11.10 DE for Windows completely. Fortunately 11.50 DE is now available to download and works much better on Windows. Ignore the test that says it is "11.1" and go to the download section ( https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/reg/pick.do?source=ifxids&S_TACT=1 05AGX28&S_CMP=DLMAIN&lang=en_US is my direct link but if that doesn't work follow the links from http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/downloads/im/ids/learn.html Guy ----- Original Message ---- From: Jean Sagi <jeansagi.ifx@gmail.com> To: ids@iiug.org Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2008 8:58:39 AM Subject: Re: Fwd: IDS On Win Vista Ultimate [12128] BTW Where can I get a "developer edition" of 11.10.TC2W2?
