Nothing wrong with that. Check out how many 3rd parties allow for that? None. Says it all. The "not invented here syndrome" is alive and well. Notwithstanding all the hype on FSF and open source...

Plenty wrong with that. There is nothing in standard Oracle SQL tuning that will change the result set of a SQL statement. It will be quite straightforward to do in 10g and after. Not as easy in 9i and 8i, but can be done.

Interesting conversation. Check out though in the next few months how many people will suddenly "convert" to open tuning, ASM and other little snippets discussed here as the way to go. With not a single reference as to where they heard it first...
