Does anyone know if there is a transcript or recording of this session ?
I'm very much interested to the Oracle (not RDB) side, but could not attend 
either event
Particularly, will Oracle 10.2.0.5 will ever see the light of day on VMS ?
I've been told my bug fix will be in 10.2.0.5 but I don't know if that will 
ever be made now...
