Oracle Names was removed because they discovered a new revenue stream in dragging those of us who wanted that functionality into OID and the wonderful Application Server world

...and the other product that comes to my mind is Oracle Names. It had its share of trouble in the early versions, but once it stabilized, it was discontinued... We have
both: Oracle Names and Designer... very heavily used.. :(
