Hi,

We have some existing program which use 5.1.1, so we want to use that for new 
installation as well until we have time to test that with 5.1.3.

For your information, I could install 5.1.1 version with this command:
pip install \
-f http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/cx-oracle/5.1.1/\
cx_Oracle-5.1.1.tar.gz cx-Oracle==5.1.1

Thanks.
