There is some info on it in the "Informix @ IBM: Product and Strategy Update", http://www-3.ibm.com/software/data/informix/events/customer/ Basically IBM are going to extend Websphere's existing 4GL, to include some Informix 4GL syntax, calling it EGL. As proposed, EGL should support multiple databases and a GUI front end, all running within the Websphere environment. Personally I'd have prefered something closer to what Fernando is proposing...
