Thanks!

Anyone interested in writing a utility to generate a Parrot NCI
interface for Oracle OCI? (Basically "just" parse oracle header
files and spit out Parrot NCI function interface definitions.)

If you're interested then post to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailinglist
(which is also used for Oracle::OCI module).

Tim.
