Squeak OR mapper for ODBC

At some point not to long ago, there was talk of potentially
porting ReStore (http://www.solutionsoft.co.uk/restore/) from
Dolphin to Squeak. If I remember correctly this came up as
part a long running thread comparing Ruby On Rails to SeaSide.
Avi Bryant I believe it was noted that ReStore is conceptually
similar to the ActiveDatabase stuff that underlies ROR. But,
at any rate, did anything ever happen on that front?

As far as I can tell, Glorp only works with an older version of Postgres
on squeak.  It doesn't seem to work with latest postgres, nor sql server
or db2, that's why I wanted something that worked with ODBC, not the
best solution, but a solution that'll work for now.  I looked at ROE,
didn't interest me for now, wanted a traditional O/R mapper, Tantalus,
though no longer developed, seems to be the only workable solution for
sql server and db2 at the moment, squeak badly needs more db support,
native support that doesn't use FFI.

Hasn't Glorp been ported to Squeak?

And there's ROE - not exactly an O/R mapping layer, but interesting
enough to warrant a good look :)
