Oracle IRM, the official blog

Simon,

That was very impressive. Does this work only with MS Office documents or with "any" file? Also, is it windows only or cross-platform?

I am heavily involved in Oracle Reports development and I can definitely see the value of IRM in that context. Do you have any plans to integrate IRM with such report generation products?
