We are currently building interfaces for KnowledgeMan and GURU to talk
to SQL Server and IBM's EE database manager.  We will be demoing this
at our world wide user conference next week in chicago.  We expect to
be shipping with this interface (a final released product) in January.
Worth noting is that the way we are building this is through tools we
provide with the product.  That means if you want to use sql to talk
to a server we don't support you could build your own.

Happy to discuss this more if others are interested.
