We are Hearing Rumors...  “ We have a huge application build using Designer, are you dropping Designer as a product? ”  “ We have Forms and I have not heard anything about Forms recently, so we are planning to migrate to Java but do not have any knowledge about Java. What would you suggest? ”  “ We have Forms and PL/SQL knowledge and no Java, are we out of business? ” Are Forms and Designer Dead?
