Hi Alex, I made a first draft of the Babel SQL documentation for Worg. See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-sql.html
Please edit or augment as you see fit. I believe you need FSF papers to contribute to ob-sql.el. If you have those, then by all means, please add Netezza support and get the ball rolling on sessions.
