Hi, found and worked around a problem with !DataBase.

== Problem ==
cx_Oracle asserts the query is `str`, but we give `unicode`.

== Work Around ==

My work around was to edit !DataBase.py and put 
{{{
        query = query.encode(connection.encoding)
}}}
Just after connection is created (in the {{{elif connection_type == 'oracle':}}} block.

== Solution ==

Use the workaround or wait Python 3000 to have proper string/unicode handling (Anthony Tuininga said cx_Oracle will have automatic conversion than).

== Contact Me ==
