Re: Splitting comp.databases.oracle ?

I asked a similar question a couple months ago, just about splitting apart the job postings from the technical discussion. I didn't get enough responses back then to make me want to pursue it any further, but if this group does split, that's my opinion. I don't see a problem grouping the rest of the tech discussions together for now, as a lot information posted to any of the groups below would be worthy of cross-posting to others.

If people are concerned about volume in this group, maybe more advice seekers could offer to receive all answers through e-mail only, and post the answers if they are requested to. (A lot of questions result in the same answer being posted by many well-meaning people.)
