I leave licensing discussions to the company CIO & Lawyers. Way too complicated for me.

"Kimberly Floss, database administrator team leader at Quaker Oats Co., in Chicago, said she hopes the guide helps resolve Oracle's issues. Floss, who manages Oracle databases, has not had licensing problems herself ..."

She obviously has never been involved in any Oracle licensing discussions. Ever try to get more than 1 Oracle employee to give you the same answer on this topic? Especially when it comes to clusters and web servers. Sometimes, even the simple definition of a user elicits hours of debate.

These web pages will certainly provide fodder for this list!
