Do you want Bitnami to add Firebird support?

Leave a comment

Bitnami is a library of popular server applications and development environments that can be installed with one click, either in your laptop, in a virtual machine or hosted in the cloud. We take care of compiling and configuring the applications and all of their dependencies (third-party libraries, language runtimes, databases) so they work out-of-the-box. The resulting packaged software (a ‘stack’) is then made available as native installers, virtual machines and cloud images. These Bitnami application packages provide a consistent, secure and optimized end-user experience when deploying any app, on any platform.

If you want to see Firebirs supported in the Bitnami library, vote now direct in their site!

Firebird 3.0 beta 1 is almost ready

Leave a comment

Dmitry Yemanov recently announced (in fb-devel discussion list) that Beta 1 of Firebird 3 is expected to be released in the next week.

Please take some time when Beta1 is out and do as much tests as you can, and report the problems back in fb-devel or Firebird tracker, helping the core developers to address the issues and so speeding up the schedule of the next releases .

Update from Dmitry:

Correction: Beta *code* is expected to be ready (i.e. tagged) the next
week. The release itself will appear slightly later, after composing the
docs and passing QA.

A new theme for FirebirdNews?

One comment

I think it is time for updating the WordPress’s theme used in FirebirdNews. The actual theme is based in the Firefox theme (old and no more maintained) and doesn’t support well some of the new features available in the most recent versions of WordPress.

WordPress has thousands of themes, and choosing the right one is a difficult task, when so many choices are available. So, if you know a good and beautiful theme that could be used in this site, please comment below.

Remember that we are a news site, so theme should fit this purpose. Also, it should has no cost (meaning it should be free or donated)
