Re: RE: Toad on StackExchange

I wonder if Toad will simply get absorbed into Oracle?  How well will it 
really stand on its own?
I know, Toad isn't just for Oracle anymore but that's what it's best known 
for.

I've answered a lot of Toad questions under the Oracle zones at 
Experts-Exchange (similar name, but unrelated company)

Good stuff! I hope we get enough momentum to get approved. I?ll do my 
part.
 
For those who have never used one of the Stack Exchange sites out, have a 
look at all the sites they host:-
 
http://stackexchange.com/sites
 
The basic method is that someone asks a question, and then other uses 
answer questions. Anyone can vote on the answers provided. That means that 
the answer that the community thinks best answers the question is, after 
some time, up the top of the page. People can have discussions on both the 
questions and answers as well. Coming to the site you can search the 
questions to see if what you?re about to ask has already been answered.
 
Further details on usage is described here:-

Subject: [toad] Toad on StackExchange
 
 
Mike McAllister had the idea of giving Toad a presence on StackExchange.
 
So I investigated it, and created a proposal for a new site there for us. 
It is an involved process, and not easily achieved. It's designed that way 
for obvious reasons. 
 
Here is the link for the proposal I created:
 
http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/38255/toad-for-oracle?referrer=lFN8JdBWpjl-6tc1Qmy_ZQ2
 
If you wish to help advertise for this proposal on a website, here is the 
text to use:
 
<a href="

Oracle" /></a>
 
 
Now it is up to you guys.
