<span style='font-size:

10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I would start using 9i as my development plan. It has lot of bells and whistles like all other versions of Oracle many of them may not work right from the get go. But it has some very good features which can be used from day one like resumable SQL statements, Flashback query, support for SCN based, Trial recoveries, RAC to name a few. <span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> As you mentioned it would save you from a huge workload in future when you have to upgrading it to 9i.

<span style='font-size:

<span style='font-size:

10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I am starting a new company, I am going to be building a platform which will use Oracle database as it's infrastructure.  It will be a very large application and environment If all goes well.  It will take about a year from start to finish till I will attempt to be live.  I am debating about using 9i or sticking with 8.1.7.  Since it will be in development, I am comfortable within a year 9i should just be about stable, and would be nice to already be on it's features, specially it's OPS features.  And not have to worry about the big move over (and probably costly) in the future.  During development it would be easy to have 8.1.7 and 9i side by side just in case something crops ups and hinders our path.

<span style='font-size:

10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Anyone have anything bad to say about that idea?  Let them rip, and be honest.
