I was provided this link in some of my correspondence with IBM on this
subject:

http://www-03.ibm.com/support/techdocs/atsmastr.nsf/WebIndex/PRS4016
See page 2.

The Oracle document mentioned in the IBM doc confirms the intent to
provide support and availability 1Q2011.

Me too; Oracle folks I've dealt with lately have seemed way more
interested in shoehorning us onto OEL than supporting Oracle on
zLinux.

We've had the releases for 11g turn into cancellations (for the 11.1)
and subsequent delays (for 11.2).
