Ya, I noticed that too.

Given that Express Edition is only beta, and you state you have a project, you might want to get started on a production version. According to prelim info, XE keeps the same APIs - so it might be sufficient to just avoid using stuff like Oracle Text and Oracle Intermedia.

As a reminder, the Enterprise, Standard [One] and Personal Edition of the database are free for development so you might be able to hold off 'till XE is production.
