That's great!

Although the test kits were designed to be easy to port to other back
ends, the only database we have this kit working on at the moment is
SAP.  There will be some porting issues you need to be concerned with. 

However, there are several people here at OSDL that are willing to
provide help and guidance if you are willing to contribute to the port.
The best way to communicate is to join the osdldbt-general mail list
on sourceforge:

http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/osdldbt-general

The advantage here is that it is read by a group of people interested
in the test kits and you may be able to get more rapid responses.

If you want to contribute code to the project (i,e, provide packages 
for running on DBT), then feel free to join the project on sourceforge:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/osdldbt/

Once you determine which of the three test kits to use, let us know and
we can provide you with the items that need to be considered for a port.
I don't know what you are trying to test, as each of the database test
kits exercise the system differently.  However, I would suggest you
start with the dbt-3 test kit.  We believe that this would be the
easiest to port.
