I must say this sounds like not the project would not be big enough
for a GSOC project. With 3 adapters already there to show the way,
plus a test suite, adding new adapters won't be that much work.

Perhaps you can extend your proposal to include moving the database
adapter support out of RelStorage into separate packages (installable
as eggs) in addition to making it work on MS-SQL? That way it'd be
easier to add more databases in the future.
