<p><font size="2">Mike, and others from Oracle, that is excellent news.<br>
<br>
One thing that is likely to be developed for FOSS4G 2010 is a number of<br>
cross-project comparisons, as per: <a href="http://www.spatialserver.net/osgis/"><a href="http://www.spatialserver.net/osgis/">http://www.spatialserver.net/osgis/</a></a><br>

<br>
I'm expecting to see a Database feature comparison table, which will at<br>
least include PostGIS and Spatialite.<br>
<br>
It would be great to see Oracle Spatial included in such a table?<br>
Would Oracle be prepared to help populate the table and work with the<br>
people who create it?<br>
<br>

&gt; Oracle will officially participate in the WMS shootout.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Oracle would also like to have Oracle GeoRaster as a raster format in the<br>
&gt; tests as a comparison to file based raster, etc for those wms's that support<br>
&gt; it.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Oracle Mapviewer will support shapefile and Oracle Spatial vector access. An<br>
&gt; Oracle database is required (at this time) for metadata (rendering info).<br>
