New Oracle ACE Definition
The definition of an Oracle ACE and ACE Director has been modified on the official Oracle ACE program home page:
The old text:
Oracle ACEs and Oracle ACE Directors are known for their strong credentials as Oracle community evangelists and technical educators, with candidates nominated by anyone in the Oracle technical community. The baseline requirements are the same for both designations; however, Oracle ACE Directors meet a higher level of expectation in terms of community activity.
The new text (I emphasize the modified text in bold):
Oracle ACEs and Oracle ACE Directors are known for their strong credentials as Oracle community enthusiasts and technical educators, with candidates nominated by anyone in the Oracle technical community. The baseline requirements are the same for both designations; however, Oracle ACE Directors work more closely and formally with Oracle in terms of their community activity.

I wonder if this change was the result of Howard’s post and related discussions.

you “wonder” if it is the result of Howard’s post?
I don’t have the slightest doubt…
I hope this pus that whole issue to bed.
Cheers

I hope so Tim. Nevertheless, it was quite a lively debate.
Noons, I should have added this emoticon
after the word “wonder” to hint what I truly meant.
It was indeed, but do note that program itself hasn’t changed; we just clarified things a bit.
And in other galactic news, Earth has been reclassified as “Mostly Harmless.”
