I have had some recent contact with Sybase about the publication of the TDS 
spec.  In a nutshell, the engineering staff has it written and ready for 
publication, but it's still hung up in their legal department.  They have 
an non-disclosure agreement (NDA) prepared for access to the information 
now, so if you need the information for your own nefarious purposes you can 
probably get it.  The free source world, unfortunately will have to wait a 
little longer.

BTW, my interest in this is to hopefully see more and better 
protocol-filtering proxies available for Microsoft and Sybase database 
connections.  Currently, I'm only aware of Gauntlet, which is a poor fit 
for my firewall.  If anyone has any product suggestions for me, I am 
greatly interested!

Thanks,
