I figured if they can admin their local copy of WebLogic, they could probably admin local copy of Oracle as well.

I would be providing all of the scripts for doing so, so they would end up being just "proxy admins".

The thing I was trying to avoid would be chasing down performance issues that weren't really related to the application. But, I was also worried that I might introduce to much of a quagmire for myself because I would be asking developers to act as local database admins. I've been thinking it over even more. I guess I'll stick with the tried and true method of one instance for development.

Thanks for the comments guys.
