Why are they converting? Would EnterpriseDB (a commercial version of PostgreSQL which has extensions to make it a "drop in" replacement for Oracle) be a possibility? http://www.enterprisedb.com/solutions/oracle-compatibility-technology
Because EDB is expensive. Why go from one closed source solution to another when you can go to the best Open Source database and forgo all of that?
Yes, EDB has some nice tools (no denying that) but porting from Oracle to PostgreSQL proper is not difficult in the least (although time consuming).
