This isn't the scientific linux users list and this type of thing isn't going to go over any better here than it did there. Oracle has a well-earned bad reputation for their business practices in their treatment of Redhat and their customers and people in this industry have a long memory. You like Oracle and appear to be a staunch supporter, that's fine. Just please don't expect the vast majority of subscribers to this list to feel the same.
