All good things come to an end
It has been agreed that as of close of business tomorrow I will retire after 38 years in IT and I just want to say goodbye. I have worked with every major version of Oracle since 6.36 and there have been a lot of changes. I have found the Oracle newsgroups/forums to be a good source of information and tuning knowledge. I want to stronly encourage anyone new to Oracle to find time to read as much of the official documentation as you can.
If anyone was hoping for a reply from me on an open thread then I am sure there are others here who will respond.
