Alex, that is an excellent idea! I second that notion.
I have learned just as much if not more from this list than the average $40-80 dba book out there (101 tuning and dba excluded, I've just ordered practical 8i and await that one). I think we can easily come up with the $500 a month figure, and that's this list alone. If you sum up all the rest of the lists...Bruce may be able to bring it down to 6 bucks a year maybe.
12 bucks a year....sh*t (Ladies forgive me here, I'm just a young buck trying to make a point) I've spent more than that for a lap dance and that was only to have someone rub an @ss on me, where you all have saved MY @SS literally more than once!!! This list is invaluable. Put me down for 12 bucks a year. Ivan
ps. I by no means wanted to offend anyone, if so I am sorry and please forgive me. ;) Long Live the List!

I think that much better than voluntary contributions will be some
s*u*b*s*c*r*i*p*t*i*o*n fees - like $1 per month or better $12 per year. I
am sure that
everybody working with Oracle and living in US or UK or other developed
country can afford such fees. We will not need to charge people from
developing countries - I am sure these subscription fees will generate more
than $500 per month.
