Info Exame reviews FB 2
Info Exame is a major computer magazine publication in Brazil. In the April edition, they published a 2 pages review of FB 2. Although it is not a deep review, it is a good propaganda for FB. The “cons” listed are mostly lack of default graphical interface (maybe its time to include FlameRobin in the default installer?) and lack of good documentation.

Joao Pedrosa’s wiki – post of the day
My use of Firebird started with its precursor, Interbase. I used Interbase for almost two years in a Delphi project, and at the time I was already doing some Firebird tests to see if it was a good alternative to Interbase. It was. It is. But I ended up not using it. From then on, Firebird has remained my database engine of choice, and I use it to host these sites, for instance. Also, I use it in most of my development efforts.
