I suppose I should comment on Takusen, as there hasn't been any news for a while. I don't know why you can't check out from Source Forge...sorry. Perhaps you could ask Shae to add you to the project. Oleg and I are in the process of migrating it from haskell-libs to darcs (SimonM gave us access to the repo as haskell.org, I think, some time ago). Also, the current version in the experimental branch is a bit broken at present, as Oleg redesigned the API a while ago, and I'm still catching up on the implementations. Currently PostgreSQL and Sqlite work, and Oracle... well, it's next on my list, but don't hold your breath, as I don't get a lot of spare time to work on it. I should be able to identify an appropriate older version that will compile, if you want. Support for SQL Templates... well, we support bind variables, if that's what you mean. Sounds like what you want. As for examples, there's just what's in the test modules that you'll get with the library. What's your goal with using Takusen? I hate to say it, but right now HaskellDB+HSQL is probably going to give you a better database API for Oracle, at least until I pull my finger out and finish updating the various back-ends, and complete the move to darcs. Is there something you need that HaskellDB+HSQL doesn't support?
