Anyone else get the latest IIUG mailer?

This is a discussion on Anyone else get the latest IIUG mailer? within the informix forums in Other Databases category; Yes, I subscribe and no, I don't mind getting it.

So yet again, IDS is a product where IBM lacks any reason to put skin in the game....

Yes, I subscribe and no, I don't mind getting it.

But if you look at it, the IIUG is doing more marketing on IDS's
behalf than all of IBM.

Its one thing to be a community advocate, its another to be the
marketing center for IBM.

This isn't a disrespect of the IIUG, but rather a post critical of IBM
for not doing their own sales and marketing.

So yet again, IDS is a product where IBM lacks any reason to put skin
in the game.

I didn't get it. Are we talking about an email or actual physical mail?
