The Week of Oracle Database Bugs

We are sad to announce that due to many problems the Week of Oracle
Database Bugs gets suspended.

We would like to ask for apologizes to people who supported this and
were really excited with the idea, also we would like to thank the
people who contributed with Oracle vulnerabilities.

thanks for the tip Ferg!
