Can you enlighten us further on what the "rift" is about? I, for one, haven't heard anything about it. I agree that if Oracle isn't involved in the IOUW'96 conference it probably won't be much good. Also, is Oracle going to have a conference of its' own? I hadn't heard about that either. This doesn't sound good to me. Received on Wed Jan 24 1996 - 00:00:00 CET
