Wiki on Oracle redux

Several months ago, I asked in this group whether anyone knew of any Wiki
software out there that runs on Oracle.

Andy Dingley recommended MediaWiki, which is a great Wiki indeed. However,
its Oracle support has been dropped as of v1.7

Is there any other Wiki that supports Oracle?

phpWiki originally used DBM files as backend storage. Later versions
gained support for mysql and PostgreSQL. In the latest versions, you may
be pleased to hear, they're phasing out specific support for mysql and
PostgreSQL and phasing in support for PDO -- PHP 5's common database
interface, which supports about 8 or so different backend databases,
including Oracle.
