Let me ask the people I am contracting for about this. They are big 
supporters of OSS, so odds are good.

A qualified interested:

I would be more than willing, however:
1) I have very little experience with Sybase, and
2) The only Sybase access I will have after this project is Sybase 12.5 
(most recent) on Mac OS X.

If folks don't have problems with those and can work with me on issues 
(e.g., educate me on Sybase specifics, as needs arise), I would be 
honored to maintain and assist :-)

P.S. I apologize for the delay; I just found out they've finished 
building out the parts of the deployment env., and we're ready to 
continue work on site this Friday.
