I agree with you, Charlie. The fact that an Oracle release is
relatively new doesn't mean it's riddled with bugs (although that was
once the case); neither does the fact that it's been out for 12 months
or so mean that there aren't any show-stoppers lurking within.
I've made the case before that 9i should be considered more as if it
were 8.2. Yes, it's new, and yes, you should test and verify
carefully, but it's not as large a leap as going from Oracle7 to
Oracle8, for example.
