And yet it STILL returns articles about DEC's RDB.

Wasn't the new/improved MetaLink supposed to be out Q1 of *this* year?  All
I want is valid HTML, no %$#*( frames, and no hits that I can't view or that
don't apply to my search (e.g. DEC RDB, Apps, etc.).

Knowing oracle's knack for disgusting user interfaces, which shouldn't be used
after a meal, we will get an abomination which will contain Java applets, lots
of JavaScript, icons and flashing pictures, may be even some sound, like playing
Mozart's concerto No. 40 in G-minor or Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture whenever the 
submit button is pressed,  and then returning a bunch of unusable documents
which you are not entitled to see.
I must say, it's still better then playing Ludacris or Eminem to the unsuspecting
Metalink users. BTW, oracle white papers in the rap format, sung by Ludacris would
be a blast, when I come to think of it.

But isn't that the solution to all Oracle problems? Just
upgrade to DEC RDB?
