Probably due to a lack of activity. I can't remember the last time I even saw an Oracle post. It doesn't make a lot of sense to create a dedicated forum for a topic that will only have a few posts per year. If it ever picks up, I'm sure the powers that be will create a forum for it, just like everything else. -

A lot of OCA/SCSAs might pick up in the coming months (when the ORACLE-SUN deal goes through). -

I think if there's an Oracle forum, new people will sign up and start participating. -

I would certainly be willing to participate. But maybe it might be better to have a general SQL forum in the same way there is no VMWare forum and no Hyper-V forum? I don't know... -

I like that idea. MySQL is becoming a bigger and bigger part of my job. -

I did this years ago. Try looking here:
W3Schools Online Web Tutorials
Go look under the SQL tutorials and go from there. Pick up a a "...in 24 hours book".
Also grab a copy of oracle/sqlexpress/mysql and start going. -

Those are for MS SQL Server so many people who want to post on Oracle would not even bother. But it might just be a question of renaming it something like
SQL Database Exams - Oracle (9i, 10g, 11g) MS SQL Server (2000, 2005, 2008.) MySQL -

We'd like to keep the MS exams in the Microsoft certs section, but do prefer a separate forum per cert vendor/cert (and if popular per exam even), rather than forums for technologies. The Virtualization forum is an obvious exception so it's not set in stone either but in this case we can add a MySQL certs forum to the Others category and see later next year if it's worth keeping. Or give Sun their own category with Java and MySQL and then rename it to Oracle later on. I'll give it some more thought and discuss it with JD tomorrow. Thanks for the suggestions!
