RE: naming conventions for Oracle/Unix vs. SQL Server

Guys,

Please help. I work in an organization where we have both SQL Server on NT and Oracle on Unix. SQL Server and developers who are used to GUI's in NT like column names to have mixed case with no underscores. The Unix folk - like myself prefer underscores and one case. Is there any reason not to adopt mixed case for Oracle? Is this really just what I am used to? I have been using this standard for so long that it maybe the reasons I adopted it do not any longer exist or are not as compelling as developer's today are more comfortable with mixed case.

Help!
