Several of the Oracle9iAS developers told me that they bought a snapshot of the Orion code base approximately one year ago - since that time there have been significant modifications to the Oracle code base - which will never be a merged with Orion.
They did point out however that a reasonable amount of the work on the Oracle code base was done by Ironflare and they said there is no significant reason why Ironflare couldn't re-implement the same features in the Orion code base. So they are two seperate trees and 'technically' maintained by two seperate groups. Just the group maintaining Oracles tree happens to include the entire group maintaining the Orion tree along with a bunch of Oracle engineers as well. :( -----Original Message----- From: Brian Chan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 9:59 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: Oracle9i vs. Orion How different is Oracle9i from Orion? I always thought it was the same thing but renamed. Are they essentially two different trees now maintained by different groups? - Brian
