We also are considering upgrading from 8.0.3 on Solaris 2.5.1. There has been some flakyness with the Oracle Forms tools which I'm told is due to a bug fixed in later RDBMS versions. Also database links need the tnsnames entries entered explicitly, as aliases don't work. You may remember this bug from earlier 7 versions - back to bite us again.

I would like to to go to 8.0.5, and would be interested in any comments or experiences people have about that release.
