Hi,
Shouldn't the Oracle driver work for both versions? I would assume so,
but I may be wrong ... To me (not an oracle specialist) it seems like
this is only a licensing difference?
Thanks for clarifying,
Andreas

Just a quick general question - would this be an Oracle Spatial or
an Oracle Locator driver? Because (for those who don't know), Oracle
give quite a lot of their spatial stuff for "free" by way of Oracle
Locator (it's included in Oracle Enterprise Edition), but there's a
expensive extension called Oracle Spatial which adds a lot more
functions.
Ideally the driver would be able to use the Locator functionality
without triggering the Spatial functionality unless that
functionality is explicitly requested (Oracle have a weird licensing
model - everything is enabled and you can't easily disable it; the
onus is on the user not to use the extensions).
My thoughts/observations anyway, but I'm not the one paying so...
:-)

Hi,
The City of Dornbirn and the Province of Vorarlberg have an
interest in
getting an Oracle Spatial native driver developed for QGIS. They
would
finance the bulk of the development, but they are interested in
other
financial contributions if there are other interested commercial or
governmental QGIS users with an interest in the access of Oracle
databases.
Please contact me if you have an interest in helping this project
financially. We are not interested in small donations but in more
substantial amounts in order not to complicate the billing process
too
much.
Thanks,
Andreas
