11.1.0.7 is the latest patchset for 11gR1
September 21st, 2009
You will get CPU and even PSU (Patch Set Updates are proactive cumulative patches comprised of recommended bug fixes that are released on a regular and predictable schedule)
But no more patchset. This the first time I see a release with only 1 pachset.
Well, if you use Linux, you can go to 11gR2. Otherwise you may better stick to 10.2.0.4 for a few more months

11.1.0.7 is the last patch set for Release 11.1
Laurent,
it seems you are arguing against 11.1.0.7.
Is there any reason why you prefer 11gR2 against 11.1.0.7?

It looks like Oracle wants to reduce the number of version (or release) in use.
It seems, Oracle 9i is not available for download anymore, Oracle 10gR1 is less used, and Oracle 11gR1 has not been a great success so far (and probably won’t be).
So, we have now two main versions, 10gR2 (I heard about 10.2.0.5 patchset) and 11gR2 now.
That confirm an old myth, never going in production within the release 1 of a new version…
Not so long time ago, there were till 4 versions (or releases) in parallel, what’s a cost cutting.
Nicolas.
I am pretty sure you will get 10.2.0.5, and probably 10.2.0.7 who knows… I do believe the 11gR1 customer whould be to little to get major bug fixes backported from 11gR2
ymmv

10.2.0.5 projected
@Laurent Schneider
Do you have a new link or doc id for the 10.2.0.5 date?
@Jeff Hunter
10.2.0.5 is now available for Linux… AIX and Solaris will come soon - Q2Y2010, HPUX a little bit later - Q1Y2011…
All is in the note given by Laurent.
