According to SDTimes.com, "As J2EE 1.4 inches closer to the finish line, some vendors can’t help but sprint past Sun’s Java Community Process. Take Oracle Corp., which has just posted a preview version of its Oracle 10g app server designed to be compliant with the draft specification, as well as the Web Services Interoperability Organization’s Basic Profile 1.0." 9:08:56 PM

I've updated my recommended books page, with new entries for "Effective Oracle  By Design" by Tom Kyte, "Oracle Database 10g New Features" by Robert Freeman, "Oracle Database 10g SQL" by Jason Price "Oracle Database 10g DBA Handbook" by Kevin Loney, "Oracle Database 10g PL/SQL Programming", by Scott Urman, "Implementing Oracle Financial Analyzer" by John Cunningham, Fred Dean and Guy Stevens. The book links all now point through to Amazon.com as this is more convenient for most people, however there's a version of the page that links through to Amazon.co.uk for readers from the UK and Ireland. 8:45:27 PM
