Excellent work.  

Raspberry PI OS (64-bit), a version of Debian 10, has just been releasedin a beta version (https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=275370). I would really appreciate if a version of the ODBC driver for MS SQL also could include a version for ARM64. Are there any plans for this?

@Kjell_Karlsson Thanks for the feedback. There are no current plans to port the Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server to ARM64. But we do listen when people ask for features and user demand does have an impact on future plans.
