Anyone know if Oracle India employees can apply for vacancies in Redwood ?

anyway I'll get off my hobby-horse in this regard. Staying on the support hobby horse, though

the response from Oracle in this NG is never v. good . - why ? no money in it, I suppose ? or corporate ban ?

Secondly, if I raise a problem (i.e. an iTar ) it'll be detailed. I'll have read the FAQ on what to supply to support - I'll have chapter and verse.

in return for this the first communication I want from support is from someone who is an expert on the topic (and hopefully my hardware platform ) and not someone who's just typed in my symptom into the support's search engine and decided to regurgitate para's 1-3 of the returned text. When I buy support that's the contract I want with them.

Oracle support do not deliver on this. in 1994 I got an expert on the phone who solved my problem of how to relink oracle at a different start address for an old Sun box.

Since then it's been a different story.
