Perl DBD::Oracle 1.23 released

In the "I guess I still need to blog until that Twitter thing becomes popular" category, let me say here that the Perl DBD::Oracle 1.23 module has been released by Pythian. John Scoles has a fresh article on the main new feature, better embedded type support. Nice work! The bar has certainly been raised for dynamic language support of Oracle features.

DRCP connection pooling support is on the roadmap for the "beer" release 1.24 according to Paul Vallee of Pythian.

If you were wondering about the naming, 1.23 is the "Sesame Street" edition because it is 1-2-3. The 1.24 release is the "beer" release presumably because there are 24 cans in a slab of beer.
