Hi Paul,
as Simon notes, I maintain HaskellDB. I think that HaskellDB isn't
exactly what you are looking for at the moment. You seem to want to
run SQL queries, and HaskellDB is designed to free you from writing SQL.
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet, but HSQL 1.7 includes
Oracle support (though I haven't tested it). You can get it from
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?
group_id=65248&package_id=93958
Here's what I would do in your situation:
1. Join the #haskell IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.
2. Try to install your chosen library.
3. Ask questions in the IRC channel when you run into problems.
Chances are that you will have some library and Cabal developers
there to help you.

The people you want are probably
HDBC John Goerzen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
HaskellDB Anders Höckersten [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
Bjorn Bringert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
HSQL Krasimir Angelov [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Takusen Bayley, Alistair [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(did I miss any?)
They probably haven't been online since your msg, but I'm sure
they'll be keen to help you use the fruit of their labours -- and
would welcome your help in documenting them better. You might also
find help on the #haskell IRC channel.
