Hmmm, not sure how well a question like this is going to get answered, when many of the speakers at IOUG read this list...

Oh well, what the hell - there will be a leading edge presentation on advanced, undocumented features of 10.5g by Hugh McShuggy, but - despite the attractiveness of the topic - he is a bl**dy useless speaker, and I don't recommend anyone waste their time attending....

Sorry, Hugh...
