What version of Informix are you using on Linux?

I kinda forgot they have a "free to use" version.  (Or do they?)

I've used it at work for years and years... virtually never dies, and 
works well.

Unfortunately we're stuck on a quite old version.  The newer versions 
have some nifty feature I hear.

Eventually we'll upgrade...

I may have to go get Informix for Linux and play a bit... hmm.
