RE: DST

Of course, metalink also says that it could be good to update just in case someone was to begin using the datatypes.

Yes, that is an offset, but that doesn't mean that only offsets are used in your TSTZ columns (if you have any). If you're on 9.2, then you don't need to worry about the patches unless you're using TSTZ/TSLTZ columns in your app's schema/code somewhere, or plan to do so in the future. If you are using TSTZ/TSLTZ, then read all the notes, download the patch and run the utlzuv2.sql script after manually adding the 9 new timezones to your timezdif.csf file (see my previous posts for more detail on this). Yes, lots of us have dealt with this - please review all the Metalink Notes and archives of this list and then let us know if you still have any specific questions.
