Whats wrong On Document for deployment of Oracle on fedora or RHEL (my 
document hold valid for any  rh distro with gcc greater than 2.8) 
......or  other stuff like webshpere, weblogic along with Postgresql, 
Mysql and Jboss ...if its not documented ...Oracle documentation on 
Redhat is ok but not fedora ?? ...Or people who use fedora don t use 
Oracle ....Isnt it ironical that most oracle installation on Linux are 
on Redhat today ?? ...

Even tldp and freebsd has lots of documents/howto  regarding oracle/sap 
/db2 etc
 http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Oracle-7-HOWTO.html

does that mean they are against open source ?? Doesnt it increases Linux 
acceptability

I was merely suggesting at improving or simplifying present 
documentation process and this not about my oracle doc ( I have already 
submitted it to tdlp) .... I hope you realize this :-)
