Matt Olander reported in last week about a meeting with Oracle's CTO about exploring Oracle support for FreeBSD (client, server, whatever):
What we ended up discussing is a 'not officially supported' development version of Oracle downloadable from their website after filling in the standard who, what, where, and why type of form with the typical disclaimers, which I believe they already do for the other development versions.Good news indeed!In an attempt to placate his concerns about supporting a test download like this, we informed him that the FreeBSD community is used to figuring out things on their own, and that we could possibly have a couple of DBA contacts within the community act as primary contacts for initial support and an oracle specific mailing list.
