Meanwhile, if this is linux.oracle.com, shouldn't Oracle database be included in the 'free version'?
No, as IBM doesn´t make DB2 GPL either. It´s the big bucks from the fortune 500 proprietary products which pays -in part- for all the FOSS goodness like OpenJDK, Netbeans, Virtualbox, Glassfish, MySQL, Btrfs, InnoDB, BerkeleyDB...
Why don't they just continue to do something more useful like continue the support for "OpenSolaris"!
Aren't the SRPMs available for OEL? How about an "Indestructible CentOS" sub-distro?
