Why do you need to know that? What is your business need

I have heard that the development platform is Linux (Red Hat). Is that
true? If so, where is it documented?

It happens to change with about every release. There have been
announcements in the press they were switching back to Solaris.
And no,it is not documented.
It also doesn't matter as since 8.0 Oracle is built on top of their
own Virtual Operating System (refer to James Morle Scaling Oracle 8i
for this)

What is the order of release of version patches (major dot releases like
10.1 to 10.2)?

There is no specific order, although the Unixes are bound to be first
and Microsux last.


Thanks,

Evan
