Firebird DB management tool – continuing the story
After a week of using my homegrown tool for managing Firebird databases, I have realised that it would help a great deal if I could edit live data
Nbackup manuals updated
A rather big (and long overdue!) update of the Dutch and English nbackup manuals has just been committed (to trunk and B_Release) and published on the website.
Next task: Language Reference!
Cheers,

pyfirebirdsql (python 3.x driver) here is a first todo list
Philippe Makowski wrote a first todo list for the driver :
- add multiple transactions per connection management
- add prepared statements management
- extend services api
- improve info_database output (see db_info in kinterbasdb)
after that, I think that someone could work on sqlalchemy integration
I’ll try to first add the multiple transactions per connection
management in my repo (will create a branche for that)
Volunteers ?
Anything else ?
