oracle_fwd - is it safe or not?

Hi everyone,

I have some question considering about oracle_fdw and safety of use it in
production environment.

Problem we would like to resolve using this extension is to move data from
five Oracle tables to Postgres database. To avoid situation that we have to
trasfer data using sftp/ssh or another file based approach we decided to
install oracle_fdw.

Our administrator have some doubt about this extension. He asked us, are we
sure that this extension safe enough and didn't make any kernel panic
sytuation beacuse as all another extension, this one can operate on system
kernel level.

Therefore if it's possible can You tell me more about safety this extension
and release procedure and community of this module?
