Hi Jeremy,

I am from the Logstash team at Elastic. Logstash is an open source data 
ingestion tool written in jruby. It uses inputs to consume data from a 
source, filters to transform the data and outputs to send data to a 
destination (more likely than not Elasticsearch)

We use the Sequel gem (thanks for the work on this) in our JDBC input. 
Users can connect to a database and fetch records from a database for 
further processing.

We have many users with databases that have support in Sequel as standard 
but occasionally we have some that don't - MariaDB and Sybase in particular.

In the case of MariaDB, the MySql support works OOTB but the user can use 
the MySql JDBC driver due to restrictive licensing.

In the case of Sybase, when using jtds (which loads mssql support 
implicitly) the user gets an error because a product version function is 
called that does not exist in the Sybase version the user has.

My questions are:

   - How amenable are you to getting PRs adding specific support ruby for 
   these cases?
   - Given that these will most likely be variations of existing ones, will 
   there be a ongoing supprt burden that puts you off?
   

Cheers,

Guy Boertje
Elastic
