Marcelo,

though I made only a cursory reading of the doc, Oracle9i R2 has some interesting 
additions:

1) XSLT inside the DBMS
2) XPath querying inside SQL
3) support for the (emerging) XML/SQL standard

BTW,  XML:DB is rather interesting, you might now consider Oracle an 
Object-Relational-XML DBMS. 


Best regards,
