“Informix Software, the technology leader in enterprise
database-powered solutions, continues its commitment to Linux by
offering free development licenses of its popular INFORMIX-4GL and
INFORMIX-SQL application development tools. This limited time offer
will be available from today until June 30, 1999. The goal of the
promotion is to rapidly expand the number of applications offered
to the Linux community, making Linux an even more viable commercial
solution.

‘The Linux community is expanding rapidly and this new promotion
will significantly expand availability of commercial applications
on Linux. The offer highlights our unrivalled commitment to this
platform,’ said Terry Lawlor, UK marketing manager, Informix
Software.

Availability of these tools on Linux enables developers and VARs
to quickly port thousands of existing INFORMIX-4GL and INFORMIX-SQL
applications to the Linux platform. Additionally, developers can
easily create powerful new applications for the growing Linux
market.”
