I know ... "STOCK Price" and "sales projections". A sale of 9i does not indicate growth while a sale of 10g does. ;o) || -----Original Message----- || From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of M Rafiq || evidence can be seen just after release of patchset || under known bugs introduce by new patchset. || 9206 was the worst example. Oracle Corp., my co-DBA's, my client, my boss, have to *force* me to change Oracle versions. I will gladly run 9205 until some act makes me change it, "new" and "potential security hole" is not a good enough reason for me to chagne anything. I would have gladly stayed on 7.3.4.5 and 8.1.7.4 until I was told to get off. "If it is not broke...don't fix it" Chris Marquez Oracle DBA
