I think Informix's track record for post-Informix 5.0 releases is poor:

    6.0 aborted release, pretty much withdrawn
    7.0 took 1-2 years to stabalize
    8.0 where was that?
    9.0 confused customers

How much does Informix improve in 6 months?  In 2 years?  How long does
it take to get a bug fixed?

At this point, only the largest corporations can keep up with our
open-source development model.  The other database vendors have already
closed, as did Informix when purchased by IBM.
