I think so. We're stoked to get started.

Now, that makes sense!

Awesome! Good news.

Heh, baby steps. This is a big deal, at least I think so. We'll see how it goes I guess. Curious to know the download metrics and feedback.

I don't expect to see 11g Rel 2 on OS X/Intel anytime soon, but I'd be pleased to be surprised about that.

More optimistic about XE; I think the porting team is tired of hearing from me on that subject. But hey, let's get an 11g XE out there first!

Thanks for the pointer Justin. I did not see this from the Oracle forums page since not only was it at the bottom but you had to click on the Archived Forums link to see it. I'm glad that I was wrong and that Oracle did provide a read-only copy. What would have been ideal in my mind would have been to keep the URLs the same so that Google searches would work as they used to. At least the information is out there so I stand corrected. Thanks again for the pointer!

Actually, you got your wish: they were moved to a read-only archive in September:

Cheers.

Much deserved; alas, too late.

FYI, his profile will not appear there - the directory contains non-employee ACEs only.

Yeah, please send me the link!

Re: Does the Oracle Technology Network encompass too many technologies?

The approach is actually horizontal, not vertical (based on roles). Each of these roles has different types of needs, but that doesn't mean that the "complete, open, integrated" message doesn't apply equally to each role.

I wonder if TiVo can continue to compete with that cable/satellite model. They do have name recognition in the vernacular, e.g. tivoing a show, but still it seems like an uphill battle.

Re: How to Do a Set-Top Box

I still have my Tivo box, haven't re-purposed it yet.

I could have stuck with Tivo HD but the new box would have been $300 or so, whereas the DirecTV box was free.

Re: How to Do a Set-Top Box

jkuramot — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 11:37:04 -0000

What happened to your old TiVo? You could still use it for recording non-HD shows. Or crack it open and reformat the drive and use it as a computer.

DirecTV made you move? Didn't want to try the TiVo HD? I hear it's pretty nice.

Re: How to Do a Set-Top Box

JustinKestelyn — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 20:09:31 -0000

I'm a Tivo fugitive. Loved it but alas a move to DirecTV HD made a move to the DirecTV DVR necessary.

I'm not complaining too much though; it's not half bad (see similar example: Windows 95 vs Mac System 7).

Paul and I were laughing about that. Last year, we were bummed that we didn't get invitations. Little did we know that the cost was so high. Thanks for invitation to spend $4,000.

I just love how the Web 2.0 Summit is invite-only.

Not invite for me, wah!

Just to get definitions straight: If the app doesn't involve enterprise data, it's not an enterprise app.

We learned a lesson years back when the concept of a hosted business intelligence apps/DWs emerged (remember "ASPs"?): Enterprises simply do not want to outsource management of business-critical data.

Can Google potentially kill MSFT's Office business someday (OpenOffice hasn't yet)? Sure. But that's not "enterprise computing" IMO.

Confirmed, I'm the culprit.

Re: The Greatest Idea Moves Closer to Fruition

Justin Kestelyn — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 14:18:42 -0000

To be fair, proponents of this idea have been clamoring for it via Oracle Discussion Forums for at least a year (with Kuassi's and my participation). So although Mix was a big help, I'd argue that the community has had a voice on this issue for a long while.

Re: Spring Conferences

Yes, will be there (booth staff actually!). Not only will there be a mini-unconf at the Oracle booth, but we will also be providing wired internet connections for bloggers (good luck hopping on wifi there).

I just don't see this happening - Google is a media company, nothing more - but I've been wrong more than once.

We have already begun to "socialize" this idea and hope to make it a reality in the next few months. Credit to Jake for bringing it up!

Re: RIP Netscape Navigator

Justin Kestelyn — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 14:23:53 -0000

Mosaic Netscape, not too long after my first Internet forays via gopher etc. - that pre-Web toolset which was widely available in those "Internet in a Box" kits of the early 90s. This was the only popularly accessible alternative to AOL or Prodigy at that time, if I remember correctly.
