Jaime --

Sorry that I didn't respond earler -- been quite busy.

We have migrated our runtime aspect (which is heavy use of the Spatial Blade/postGIS in a mostly read-only environment); we were using Informix 9.3 dynamic server.


I have some notes I wrote up that I'll post tonight -- they are on a machine I don't have access to right now. Most of the tables and supporting SQL (perl scripts mostly) transferred cleanly; I didn't try to automate conversion of stored procedures or triggers (not a lot of these in our runtime).
