Hauke Fath <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: lgpl
Other License: 
Package: Portable SAP DB
System name: sapdb-ports
Type: non-GNU

Description:
A while back, SAP AG has made its enterprise-level database, the SAPDB, open 
source under the LGPL. www.sapdb.org maintains ports to win32, various unices 
and some linux distributions, which leaves other linux distributions (e.g.  
Debian), and the BSDs to volunteers.

Currently, the sources are made \"portable\" by applying os-specific selectors 
(SVR4, sun, ...).  The proposed project plans to convert first the sources for 
the toolkit that is necessary to build the sapdb, and later the sapdb sources 
themselves to a GNU autotools based setup.

We plan to sync with sapdb.org regularly.
