Gladly.
This document says:

"OCFS2 certification with Oracle 10g Release 2 RAC on Linux x86, x86-64, Itanium and Power is currently in progress. Upon completion of certification, Oracle will provide Unbreakable Linux Support for OCFS2 on 10g Release 2 RAC. Help is available via the mailing lists below."

This status hasn't changed for a long time, so that I wonder if it ever will.
This is why I said:
Oracle is not very actively developing and supporting OCFS.
