Hi all,

Just a quick word to say that DBD::Oracle 1.30 is on its way to
CPAN mirrors as we speak. There are no real change from v1.29_1, the
previous developer release. The changes since 1.28 are

[DOCUMENTATION]
- add warning about RT#69350 in documentation

[ENHANCEMENTS]
- added support for TAF callback
- now trap OCIServerAttach errors
- added installation notes for MAC Snow Leopard
- added '/etc' to the search paths for tnsnames.ora
- removed support for ProcC connections
- added ora_db_shutdown and ora_db_startup private functions
- added Test::Simple 0.90 to build_requires as we use note etc

[BUG FIXES]
- fixed bug in bind_col which was broken in 1.27 and stopped anyone
using a string as a column number.
- removed obsolete oparse_lang
- fixed some compiler warnings in dbdimp.c and oci8.c
- added missing OCIServerRelease to oci.def
- fixed up the POD based on DBD::Pg
- POD review rephrasing, fixing typos and spelling mistakes
up to "Placeholder Binding Attributes"
- rt 56824 - add META_MERGE mentioning DBI required version

Enjoy,
`/anick
