Garrett, I'm not sure if you intend it this way or not, but what is coming across to some of us (who do not get paychecks from Oracle) is that you want us to shut up and go home. You want to move all discussion on a topic that affects most of us to the case log of a private case where we cannot participate. You have already said that 2010/067 covers several issues and that many of them "should" be open. Would it really be that much work for an internal ARC member to split 2010/067 into two parts and open the case that doesn't contain Oracle proprietary info? - Don
