Oracle 9i is based on the Orion application server. I think Oracle bought the source and are developing it, like they did with JBuilder -> JDeveloper.
The orion application server is free for development, and $1500 per server for deployment. We're using it instead of paying Oracle ?20,000 or so. http://www.orionserver.com It might make sense to use Orion in development, rather than Tomcat. This will be closer to 9i, and you're less likely to get problems migrating. Just a thought.
