[Mono-list] Sybase and Microsoft SQL Server database supportinMono ADO.NET

[Guenther Roith]

Hello!

I planed to port it some month ago and asked the copyright holder to change,
but he suggested not to license code under a restrictive license like the
GPL :-)

So, they're unlikely to change, but of course it's worth a try to ask again.
