Assefa,

The capabilities are similar to the direct SDE support in
MapServer.  I can't currently think of any significant
advantage to using SDE through OGR instead of SDE
directly in MapServer.   I would add the mapsde.c
code was a very useful guide to me in my implementation.

The OGR SDE support is mostly useful in the context of
translating to ther formats, or other OGR based applications.

Best regards,
