Carranza G." To: FreeBSD Questions mailing list Subject: Yet another reason to ask Oracle for a FreeBSD release! Message-ID: X-X-Sender: victor@mp-dbs.mp.intralex MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the last FreeBSD Newsletter that I received (a looong time ago), there was an article about Yahoo! using FreeBSD boxes to run their search engine. Today, exploring Oracle Corporation's website, I found another article (http://www.oracle.com/st/customers/html/yahoo.html), where Doug Smith from Yahoo! says they will switch to WinNT and Oracle8 in the future. Maybe they would stick with FreeBSD if there is a native version of Oracle Server available for this platform! Just sharing my toughts. Best regards, Victor Carranza P.S. Is there a specific e-mail address to send letters to Oracle about this matter? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
