System.Data.OracleClient namespace discontinued?

I just read this article today about how Microsoft decided to remove the System.Data.OrcaleClient namespace from .NET 4.0 library.

I used this as my primary tool for working with Oracle databases.

When I decide to upgrade my applications from the .NET 2.0 to .NET 4.0, what would bee some alternative options for working with Oracle databases in the .NET 4.0 framework?

Oracle has created a special website for OracleClient developers who are interested in learning about how and why to migrate to the Oracle Data Provider for .NET (ODP.NET).. check it out:
