I’m not sure that your comment on Oracle’s track record in Apps can be justified. Exactly what data are you basing your assertion on ?

Database technology – yes….. Apps… No.

Perhaps the reason why so many people find it necessary to “discuss” what Fusion Apps is (and what it isn’t) is because the Vendor is not communicating effectively. I should not need to go to a journalists website to hear about my software or even to a user group site!

Why do we have to spend time analysing, interpreting and speculating on what our Vendor is or isn’t saying?

I was also at the UKOUG conference and heard Jesper. I too left with the impression that the full ERP suite GA is unlikely to be in 2008.

It seems that you have the contacts to provide facts that the article author either didn’t have or didn’t research.

I do have one comment to add though. Jesper Andersen (Oracle’s SVP Apps Strategy for those that don’t know) said at the UK OUG that there would be some kind of beta for the Fusion suite in 2008, followed by a limited release (to maybe 50 customers), and only then General Availability. He chose his words carefully (and even admitted to being a bit of a politician to avoid giving too much away) so didn’t give any dates, but you can’t tell me you still believe the 3rd phase (GA) is going to be in 2008?
