- Hi Folks,
- As part of the preparation of the Oracle FAQ (not including the excellent
- DBA FAQ already regularly posted), I am trying to get some idea of what
- you are all using out there. To this purpose, I enclose a survey form
- (just fill it in using the reply command of your mailer) and get it
- back to me.
-
- At the moment, this is fairly free-form, so don't worry if you want to
- break the format in the reply.
-
- If you see a glaring omission, let me know.
-
- I will post a summary.
-
- Regards,
- David
