Not exactly the case. I had some experience on oracle7 and I just want to learn the newst version for my job. For my own case I'd choose MySQL. And I have no interesting about the java stuff because the war between M$ and $un and others and to my knowledge there isn't any GPLed jdk/jre, the jdk1.1 in unstable is from blackdown.org, isn't it? And because I find on oracle's web page that they don't offer the patch for 8.1.5 any more i decide to give up it. Anyway thanks for the reply.
