RE: MIMIX

Depends on the application in use. Lakeview recently announced a new vesrion
of MIMIX - 4.1 (I'm not particularly good with the numbers, so I may be
wrong about it). There are two nice things about MIMIX 4.1: it is
API-incompatible with all previous MIMIX versions and it's extremely
unstable. But once you stop playing with data group configurations, it's OK.
However, we never tried the TCP/IP connectivity option. I'm not quite sure
what is that Lakeview are suggesting on the IFS side.
