Thanks, but I think that debugging the installation steps will be difficult using only a publicly accessible wiki (in the first place, this wiki could not install SMW until someone fixes the reported problems). So I think we first need to find somebody to debug the basic SMW Orcale support to the point where at least installation works. But thanks for the offer anyway.
