Since MySQL allows you to "dump" data directly to CSV files you can always
dump the data and use something like SQLoader to import it into oracle, if
you want to get all fancy perl would be good choice to move the data/maybe
even create the tables.

A quick google search resulted in http://iheavy.com/node/51 which seems like
a good starting point as well
