Re: Informix v7.24 on HP-UX 10.20

Hi Dave, 7.30.UC6-1 is available on HP-UX 10.20, David... P.S.: here is a the list of bugs corrected since 7.30.UC5 (maybe not critical bugs but the list is quite impressive). We solved several problems by migrating from UC2 to UC6 (I asked for UC5 but informix sent UC6. Well, I kept it) (extract of ~informix/release/en_us/0333/SERVERS-ADDENDUM_7.3) IV.
