Tim releases the source. The source goes to CPAN, typically, except in BETA situations as you are seeing. ActiveState used to provide binaries for DBD::Oracle for the Windows platform. It's very common for a windows user to have the Oracle client already installed/licensed, but not a C compiler to build. So, when ActiveState stopped, I picked up. I plan on supporting more drivers, but I have not had a lot of time to spend on it. Regards, Jeff
