Same old story, same old ...

Planning for jaunt #3 into as yet unseen territory. A week in Kampala Uganda followed by another week near Lisbon Portugal ... I am working for a firm out of Gatineau QC called CIA. I told them they would be much bigger if in the US :). In Uganda from Thursday August 26 until Wednesday September 1 (the 48th anniversary of my Bar Mitzvah). Then I am off to Lisbon from September 1 until the 8th, then back home. I will be working for CIA until late September. A well worn cliché ... when it rains it pours. I have 2 and a half opportunities at the same time. I believe 1 to 1.5 of them will be waiting for me when I finish up with CIA in late September; that may indeed go on longer too.

So one thing I know I am missing from my portfolio is an Oracle feature called RAC. I was told today that I will be doing a RAC install in Kampala. I have asked the client whether it is 10g or 11g as there is a big difference between RAC for those two releases. I do not have my final itinerary yet but I may be going through Addis Abeba both or one way. If I have enough time I will go into town and visit a few buddies. I would need a visa which I would get before I leave.
