I think I remember Jean-Pierre Arneodo 
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) mentioning that they 
expect the midgard-lib part of Midgard 1.2.5-oracle
to be stable sometime this week.

However, while the Oracle port isn't available yet,
the other option is to use PHP's own Oracle 
connectivity. This way you can have the normal Midgard 
data in a MySQL database and then connect to an Oracle 
database for other applications.

Midgard 2 has been delayed severely, but we look forward
to working on it again sometime later this year (late Q2?)

Midgard 1.4 (which is the current version being actively
developed) will contain many of the features originally
intended for Midgard 2 - such as replication and extensible
records. There has also been some interest in porting
Midgard 1.4 to other databases.
