10g Release 1 Desupport

Hi
I'm unsure as to whether this announcement has been around for a while (and I missed it), but 10g Release 1 (9.0.4.X Developer Suite, App Server, Forms, Reports etc.) is scheduled for ECS desupport on 31-DEC-2006.

However, 10g Release 2 (required for Forms and Reports) is not available, and there is no expected date (Mid Summer is still being quoted).

I'm personally not looking forward to telling clients, that our new product version (required for legislative reasons in Jan 2006) will have a lifespan of less than one year, as the product that we are required to move to has not been released yet.

Even if it is released sometime in the summer (my confidence is not sky high), this does not give us enough time to test our product prior to release.

Can someone from Oracle confirm that this is the case, and advise for the reason for such a short gap between two major releases (major in so much that between 10g Release 1 (9.0.4.x) and Release 2 (10.1.2.1) Forms, the RSF and PL/SQL versions have changed, requiring a full recompile).

Thanks for your attention.

Marc
