Hate to disagree but I have opened a number of SRs on 11.1.0.6 and all
have been dealt with quickly and efficiently.

I appreciate that the world we live in is one in which there is a need
for instant gratification but why would you expect patches for 11.1.0.6
when no sane person would have already rolled it out into production?
Lets get the Windows, Solaris, etc. versions out, find the quirks, and
then get a patchset that fixes what many of us are looking for during
this early experience period.

I am aware of two fixes that will be in that patchset already and no
doubt others will be found by those taking advantage of having 11.1.0.6
in their dev/test environments.
