It seems to me that IOUG has become a wholly owned
subsidiary of TUSC. TUSC in turn has an incestuous
relationship with Oracle. All very cozy.
No real complaint about the arrangements. Someone has
to step up to the plate if IOUG is going to continue
to be a viable organization and in this economic
climate few can afford to do it.
Should IOUG be able to survive without Oracle?
Probably. Will it be able to survive without Oracle?
I doubt it.
