[ontopofIT] Oracle Announces Oracle 8i Database Server

Hello all,

        We would like to invite the comp.databases.oracle.misc community to share in the discussion of the following IT story:

        In a story we'll be following all day, Oracle will be formally announcing the 8i database at a Larry Ellision love-in in New York. 8i, code-named Emerald, was previously to be named 8.1. It was renamed by Mr. Ellison himself as part of a strategy to position this release as the "Internet" version of Oracle. The first article covering the story today is at News.com.

Come join the discussion at ontopofIT!

        Notes: The full text of the article includes the links, which I have stripped here because many newsreaders don't grok html. Some have also told me that it would be good to mention that ontopofIT carries no ads.

Yours truly,
Paul,
