It's amazing the things that conferences can get you. Tanel Poder, not
sure if he is still on this list, mentioned Metalink Note 175982.1 at
UKOUG earlier this month, though I'm sure it didn't exist 2 years ago
when I looked for a note like this using Metalink search.

I'm curious as to the derivation of "Secret Decoder Ring" by the way.

Granted, they are undocumented because Oracle does not want anyone to hack
their software, but surely somebody knows what all those names translate to,
or what they are used for. I have a very curious streak, so while I would
not be able to do anything the knowledge, I simply want to know.
