I happen to know that they do work.
They can work on a mode that can preclude you from having to have
Oracle client software installed on the client (OCI level). In that
mode, it is not as fully functional than if it uses the P/Invoke mode,
but it does behave like a good ASP.NET 2.0 capable provider with
Connection, Command, DataReader, etc.
My experience has been using DevArt DotConnect for Oracle on an MVC 3
app built using VS 2010 and later deploying to Open SUSE 12.1 running
Mono 2.10.6.
It worked flawlessly.
However, it really is about time that Oracle make a good old clean
managed provider. :)

Wonder if the DevArt drivers run on Mono..

Hey Paco. Long time no see.
I added the feature requests for mono and a fully managed odp.net driver.
The fully managed driver isn't so fully managed after all. There are
DllImports to kernel32.dll. But still, i tried running it on mono on
windows, and it still failed. Some globaliztion Functionality missing in
mono maybe.

Well, there might be a forum to petition for a solution to the above:
Feature request (Support ODP.NET on
Mono)<https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=18357:39:9334166577265::NO::P39_ID:26141>awaiting community

Network (OTN) but it is a free membership)
When I voted, there were only 51 entries. Really? Come on fellow Monos,
give it your ALL and upvote this feature request so that everyone can see
just how much interest there is in the Mono project.
Thank you in advance for your participation...
