To be honest I would not hand over the list to IBM. Do you really think they would do a marketing campaign for IDS ? All they would do is sending the customer info material about it's triple-digit-growth 'flagship' data server DB2 -:) Ok to be fair, at least you should be careful whom at IBM you send the list.

Have you considered not "giving" it to IBM but rather offering it to them for a price? That price being reasonably small but yet important. Like equal treatment for Informix on the website? For example if they want to put DB2 links on the Informix pages ... then Informix links on all the DB2 pages. -- Daniel A.
