Oliver,
         I'm working on RT on Oracle. At this point in time we have 
DBIx::SearchBuilder-0.81_04 working with it with little/no problems. The 
current issues that I am having are all RT specific - namely the data that 
is being passed to Oracle is violating the table spec for the Groups 
tables. Basically RT is passing me some information which ends up being 
undefined and as such the 'make initialize-database' process fails when 
creating the system user.

For some reason I haven't thought of changing the schema for that table and 
just trying to get the import working - but I'm making slow/steady progress 
hunting down the problem.

I'll be out of action for a fortnight but hope to continue plugging away at 
the RT/Oracle issue.

I've previously promised patches for the updated install process (and 
failed to deliver - as I'm slack at the moment - RT wise) which I'll 
attempt to package up RSN and email to the list before I disappear. Most of 
my communication is on the RT-DEVEL list thought - so you won't see it 
posted here.
