I am going to miss going to the event next week. My fault. I had a conflict that cleared up, but not in time for Oracle to register me. I have asked them for streaming info so will catch up on a few sessions that way. Sorry to miss those who are going.
In the meantime, thanks to many of you for your input on whether I should think of next writing Oracle Nation. I have also reached out to Oracle to measure what their level of support might be if I do end up writing. Hopefully, it is comparable to the support I got from SAP in writing SAP Nation 3.0. I expect to hear back in a couple of weeks.
Those who do go to OOW, please send me your thoughts on the book, especially on the applications side of the business. You can be my eyes and ears there - will help considerably in my decision. Thanks!!
