Remember Oracle is a commercial, not a free, company. Thus their achilles heel is that they are motivated by money. Wave enough of it at them and a port of Oracle to FreeBSD will magically appear. ;-) Ted Mittelstaedt tedm@toybox.placo.com Author of: The FreeBSD Corporate Networker's Guide Book website: http://www.freebsd-corp-net-guide.com >-----Original Message----- >From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG >[mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Keller, Sid >Sent: Monday, August 06, 2001 12:26 PM >To: 'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG' >Subject: Oracle for FreeBSD > > >According to the FreeBSD Corporate Networkers Guide it said that FreeBSD >developers or BSDI people where working with Oracle to port Oracle to >FreeBSD.
