While most of the relevant stuff has been said already, let me add two tidbits: First, Full Impulse is definately .25 c. I don't know if it's strictly fanon, but if it is, it's very widespread. There's no reason to assume it's otherwise, really.

...actually, my second point is a reason to assume otherwise: In Star Trek VI, Sulu says the fleet is heading home at full impulse. What the heck?

A) It's wrong, they meant warp.

or

B) Impulse is a viable interstellar propulsion system.

Have fun puzzling that one out.
