Has anyone on the forum implement an IMIX session?
What was your experience?
Just how similar is IMIX to FIX?
Is the session protocol the same as FIX?
What version of FIX is IMIX most closely based on (e.g. 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 etc…)
Can a functioning FIX engine (say 4.2) can handle IMIX with only minor changes, e.g. to the data dictionary?
Are the characters single-byte or multi-byte?

A bit more poking around of the IMIX the Java API document shows that not only is IMIX a clone of FIX, the Java implementation is clone of QuickFIX/J, right down the to the namespaces, classes and API (modulo some search and replace).
Hello Bruce -
Are you available for quick chat regarding your experience with integrating with using IMIX?
