ANNOUNCE: DBD::Oracle 1.29_1 now on CPAN
Yanick Champoux
I'm happy to announce that DBD::Oracle v1.29_1 is now on CPAN,
eagerly awaiting to be downloaded and tested by fearless beta testers.
(changelog given below)
If you have an Oracle instance near by and some cycles to spare,
please consider giving this new version a whirl. If everything goes
well, this release should be promoted to a non-developer release in 2 weeks.
Enjoy,
