Ellison donates software for U.S. security

Oracle OpenWorld 2001 Moscone Center San Francisco, California December 2-7, 2001 SAFETY AND SECURITY POLICIES IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ AND FOLLOW THESE PROCEDURES In the wake of the September 11 events, Oracle Corporation is taking additional safety measures for OpenWorld. We are working to make these changes with minimal impact on our attendees, but would ask for your cooperation to ensure that appropriate safety measures are taken for our event. This year expect to see more security. Uniformed police officers will be on duty at Moscone Convention Center and extra Security Officers will be roving all Conference sites and the exhibit hall floor. However, there is a new security policy being instituted for OpenWorld that you need to be aware of: While on-site, you should carry a photo ID (driver's license or passport) at all times.
