Ok hot off the press RC3
A few more minor fixed but a last minute patch for ora_lob_chunk_size
function
It can be found in the usual spot

<rant>What really pisses me off in Oracle 10 (beside all the normal
Oracle hate) is the new (mis)feature of a Recyle Bin. WTF, a database
is not a windows system!</rant>
That said, I think it would be neat if DBD::Oracle would clean up the
recycle bin after it has done it's testing.
<RERANT>Unfortunately this is way to far on the Oracle DBA side to be
part of DBD::Oracle, One has to do the Purge command while logged in as
a user with 'SYSTEM' privs or greater. It would also Purge ie (empty,
delete, erase kill) the entire Recycle Bin something that may tick off
you friendly neighborhood DBA.
As well this is a (mis)feature can be turned off or on so one would have
to test for that then test to see if the user has purge etc.
Not something I think one should introduce in DBD::Oracle. I think it
would result in a loss of confidence in DBI and DBD as we would start
doing SYSTEM type work on table space right from the start.
