I have website you don't [officially] have.

SAP had it for awhile but they got their hands slapped in public so I
expect you wouldn't want to be found there. ;-)

Ok, you need to be patient here my Canadian English needs help and is
second hand to begin with.
You are trying to tell me that "I [Daniel] have [access to the metalink]
website, you [Serge] don't have [access]"
Correct. Please be aware that I have no telepathic abilities. I do not
know what you consider "relevant websites".
Could be psoug for all I know. :-)

Are you implying absence of bug-reports in metalink implies absence of
bugs in Oracle? It isn't a bug until Oracle says so? Now I start to
understand unbreakable!

Cheers
Serge

I'm trying to say that an IBM employee named Serge is not accessing
metalink in an attempt to answer a question but I am. Clear enough? <g>

There is no need for word games.
You have still not testes BITAND though ... (or you have and try to
derail the off-topic to off-off-topic.

Cheers
