For various reasons, my organization won't support MySQL as a database. I noticed that as of the release notes for 1.6.0, MediaWiki is claimed to support Oracle though it's not well tested.
As far as I know Oracle support is not actually functional at this time. Further, it's neither being maintained nor is it documented.
If you or your organization are interested in sponsoring continued development, please let me know.
