Do you really believe this? If something like VERITAS is going to be included in 10g, it will be Disk Management Option licensed per processor for at least 30% of base EE licence. Oracle haven't been behaving like charity in the past and I do not think that they will start with it soon.

Or do betatesters get also some pricing info? I though you do just technological testing for them not participating in pricing survey.
