IBM Informix Database Driver for Perl DBI Version 2008.0513 (2008-05-13) 
has been uploaded to CPAN.

IBM Informix Database Driver for Perl (also known as DBD::Informix) is
the driver code that enables Perl 5.6.1 or later to access Informix
databases via the DBI module (but if you are not already using Perl
5.10.0 - or any later version - you should be planning to upgrade).  You
will need the code for DBI version 1.38 or later as well (v1.604 - or any
later version - is recommended).  The code for DBD::Informix is
available for download via:
