Hi Josh, I actually just finished a major rewrite of a significant
part of Cake's data abstraction layer, half the point of which was to
compensate for the fact that SQL Server doesn't support the use of
OFFSETs.  Previous to that, I implemented an entire field mapper in
the SQL Server driver to compensate for the fact that PHP's MSSQL
interface does not support returning field names longer than 30
characters.

At this point, I'm done.  I'm done taking responsibility for
Microsoft's broken database server, and for PHP's broken interface to
it.  Other than critical flaws, and keeping (relative) consistency
with other driver APIs, the MSSQL driver will not be maintained by the
core team going forward.  If one or two developers are willing to
further develop and maintain this driver, they can contact me
directly.
