There are inteed unit tests of the db backends; last time I checked
they didn't pass with Oracle.
Also, I am curious what the differences are and if versions matter.
Off the top of my head, the big difference I can think of is that
Oracle doesn't support LIMIT/OFFSET on queries (you're supposed to
use a cursor or a temp table). This in and of itself causes issues
for Django, and I'm 99% sure there are other differences of this
type. I'm going to mess around with it when I get a spare moment and
try to get something at least partially working; I'll make an
announcement when there's something worth trying.
