I think they've actually made it easier to download now.  I think the
thing to do, which I discussed a bit with Marc, is to make it a config
option for the datastore, to use the sdo api, or not.  I believe it
should just be one or two classes that would be the different readers
and writers for sdo and non-sdo.  Each has advantages and
disadvanteges, and the oracle jar based one should be pretty easy to
write.  If you were to take a crack at it Paolo then I think we could
include it as an option, though probably better to default to the one
that does not need the additional jar, the config option could just be
there if the jar is on the path...  Marc and I talked about it a bit,
and the easiest way to do that would probably be to make a new
datastore, in the style of the thick client option for oracle, that
only has isAvailable() to true if the jar is on the path.
