Results of OCS mailing list survey

2003-08-28 Thread Bruce A. Bergman
Hi folks --

Response to my survey was dismal at best.  Am I on that many kill lists? ;-)  Anyhow, 
here are the counts:

For: 3
Against: 1

Even though the response was 3:1 for the list, four people will not be able to carry 
a mailing list, so I will not be adding one at this time.  Perhaps as OCS matures, 
there will be more demand.

thanks,
bruce

I think that is not apathy or des-interest in such a list. I think that OCS has not 
hit the main stream yet, or maybe there are listers that don't know much about and 
would like to learn from the posts more.  Some of us use this lists as a learning and 
discovery tool.

Don't get discourage.

We're one of the many companies running the soon-to-be-desupported Microsoft
Exchange 5.5 server.  In other words, we're being forced to go through a
major change; either upgrading to the latest and greatest Microsoft Exchange
version, or looking at other options such as OCS.  Both are pretty wrenching
changes to make.

We have some Oracle consultants coming in a few weeks to give us a demo of
OCS.  And I'll be looking for info at OracleWorld.  It definitely sounds
good on paper, and the pricing is competitive.

But we'd sure like to hear of any real-world experiences.  Such as the
recent comments about it being a bit difficult to administer.  (Which will
probably be fixed in the next release, of course).

That probably doesn't justify the need for a seperate list, but I am
interested in hearing about any OCS hands-on experiences.

Dave
