The last time I looked, they didn't have a release for Mac OS X, which
hampered my own development efforts.  There are two parts to an initial
port:

	1) Translate RT's database schema to SAP DB (Start from the
	MySQL schema)

	2) Create a DBIx::SearchBuilder::Handle class for SAP DB

After this, run rt's test suite with "make regression" and see how you
do. From there, we may need to tweak and fine-tune things.
