I just noticed that the link "Porting from Oracle PL/SQL" still points
to the 7.4 manuals. Shouldn't that be updated to point to the current
release?

And the link "Ora2Pg - Oracle to PostgreSQL database schema converter"

(http://techdocs.postgresql.org/redir.php?link=http://www.samse.fr/GPL/ora2pg/ora2pg.html)

gives a 404 error.

A quick search of pgfoundry finds
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/orafce/
which may help.

Depending on your needs and plans have you looked at EnterpriseDB?
They claim to run most Oracle stuff straight up. Their free version will
run on 1cpu with up to 4GB data and 1GB RAM.

Felix,

You might want to look at EnterpriseDB, which is PostgreSQL with
Oracle compatibility extensions.

Not your fault...  the whole techdocs site really needs to go away but the pg
webmasters haven't gotten around to it (mostly me in this particular case)

Felix, in case your still watching, a (in theory) more up to date link would
be found at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/techdocs.3. Oh, and please don't
crosspost across 3 different lists in the future, it just creates noise for
the rest of us.
