Can you connect to Oracle 11g from CF 7/8?

Question

One of my databases is being upgraded to Oracle 11g RAC. I'm
still using ColdFusion 7 (on Linux). Even ColdFusion 8 only
supports Oracle 10g R1-R2 RAC. How would I connect to Oracle 11g
from ColdFusion 7? If that's not possible, would it help at all to
upgrade to CF 8?

Thanks.

Our ColdFusion 7 and 8 servers both work fine with Oracle 11g, we have
even gotten our derelict (at least I wish it was) 4.5 server to talk to
our new 11G database through an 8.1x client.

We are using the Enterprise ColdFusion with the Native Oracle Driver,
but I don't see why the standard version would have any trouble with the
normal JAVA thin client or JAVA-ODBC bridge.
