Currently I'm writing the ActiveRecord for Oracle and I thought of
writing one for Sybase, too. Unfortunately, I do not have the time at
the moment. So, it would be great, if someone else could write the
Sybase adapter. You can find a database driver encapsulating the Sybase
ct library under http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/sybase-ctlib. It's
very old ad I do not know, if is still maintained. Maybe you have to
clean it up a bit first. Under
http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/show/HowToWriteAnActiveRecordAdapter
you'll find a tutorial on writing ActiveRecord adapters. It's really
easy and the biggest problem is the generation of primary keys. If you
have any questions do not hesitate to ask me.

Cheers,
