Tom 在自己的Blog(大陆用户似乎访问不到)中提起了 Oracle 10gR2 的一点信息–其实也不是什么新的信息，那就是 10gR2 已经存在了，并且虚势待发.
install 10g R2, it has been sitting on my desktop for two days now…
Tom 透漏的一个重要的消息是他的 Expert One-on-one 第二版将会首先以 CD 的形式发布．目前Guru Tom 的写作进度:
- finish chapter 12 (new chapter that didn’t exist before on datatypes – who would have thought there is so much to say about datatypes..)
- edit chapter 6 (well, that’ll be this weekend)…
- do chapters 13, 14, 15 (that’ll be the end of volume I, new stuff for data unload/load, new stuff for parallel chapter that never exists and update partitioning to 2005)
