 observation that I omitted for some reason, but several people
commented 
upon it, was the high average age of the attendees. Robert, who also 
attended from Ardenta, is in his his early thirties and I wuld say he was 
very comfortably in the bottom decile of the age distribution.  I have one

Informix specialist at Ardenta who is still not 30, but he seems to be an 
aberraton in this respsect, and a good 10-15 years younger than the
average 
Informix expert.

I think this is quite a worrying demographic for Informix - clearly many 
years have gone past since youngsters think it worth studying - and this
is 
an im****tant thing to counter if Informix is to regain its pomp under the 
renewed vigour of IBM's promotion.
