Re: informix-list

Jonathan, No apology is needed from you, we dropped the ball. Folks, Just an FYI, the current problem in the last couple of days seems to be that our downstream news provider is not sending our messages to c.d.i from the informix list after they get the messages from IIUG. This is a donated newsfeed and we are working with them to try and get it fixed.
