An external tool helping translating sql is fine, but nothing to be defined todo for core pgsql IMHO. I still believe some minor "oracle helper" behaviour (not to call it oracle compatibility, to avoid wrong expectations) should be added. Currently, pgsql appears a bit arrogant towards those oracle centric people (always a matter of point of view, of course). We could avoid this by offering some concessions.
Actually, we had added awhile back a set of 'Oracle compability' stuff to the backend, to handle some of the non-standard functions that Oracle users had access to ... is there a reason why that can't be extended? Or are we talking about *really* core changes here?
