I will say we are probably looking at 7/28 for beta. I am afraid I won't make it until 7.4beta1. The problem is that I have not managed to have more than just one connection to oracle at the same time. For some Oracle reason I don't know what went wrong. I will have a closer look at that. However, named connections don't make too much sense with just one connection ;). I have troubles testing it as long as the connect fails ... There is some other Oracle specific stuff which seems to be more painful than I have expected. Have I already told you that I hate Oracle? Let's wait for the next major release and prepare something really useful. I am still not quite satisfied with what we have at the moment.
