I've only put my post in at this point for want of somewhere else to do it. It's not a reply to anyone, actually.

This has all been most fascinating, and probably could continue to be. And it occurs to me that there is probably a use for a full-blown newsgroup to cover the intersect between the two products. It must surely be quite common to have to do both DB2 *and* Oracle work, and a newsgroup that compares one with another, or explains one in the terms of the other, might not be a bad idea. If only I knew how to go about doing such a thing, I might perhaps do it. Maybe someone else will think it a good idea and run with it?

But, aside from that, I'd venture to suggest that the thread itself is pretty much off-topic for at least the Oracle group, whose charter I have at least read. Particularly since it regularly threatens to degenerate into a product-bashing competition, and not a vehicle for mutual enlightenment.

Do you think we might begin to draw it to a close, please?

Just a thought.
