Today is the day when you can share your love towards Firebird and the Free Software world (libreoffice , qt , debian)
There are lots of ways to declare one’s love… Here are some ideas on how you can go public and proclaim your love to Free Software/Firebird

Q:What kind of system is this? .The response is on Firebird-support
Monitoring software with also web access by many many users ~1 000 000
They do something which need transaction and some select(reports) which “not need” transaction
but in transactional database select also start short transaction then i can not remove it creation..
1 000 0000 x 10 queries per day i got 10 000 000 transaction+ system self generate 8 000 000 transaction per day (to
storing/updating/computing.. data)
and Forced Writes are ON but database work on some not mechanical device like normal HDD and corruption is reduced to minimal possible but this transaction counter do may problem :/Karol Bieniaszewski
Some time ago I’ve written a portal in pure PHP for controlling test laboratory of C# applications. The whole testing process is based on a framework of our own production.
Philippe Makowski managed to rebuild the flamerobin 0.9.2 package for fedora 15 also for the 16 version too .

flamerobin with clang
He was afraid that it will be his last tweet but he survived presenting to the postgres people
Adriano created a git mirror for all firebird branches . You can check the progress for each branch and the trunk in the network graph
Today Firebird 2.5 final packages is uploaded to the Debian testing repository
Soon it will be moved to Debian testing and Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal
Notes on Paul Beach blog about forced writes on Linux/Windows and the config setting (how it was ignored on linux on older versions of firebird)
The issues are solved on firebird > 2.0.4 or firebird >=2.1.0 final , also forced writes should be left on if you don’t need corrupted db
Seems that readline does have utf-8 support and can be used for inserting/selecting accented chars
Check if libedit is used instead of readline
ldd /usr/bin/isql-fb | grep libedit
libedit.so.2 => /usr/lib/libedit.so.2 (0x00007f3dcbd7b000)
export LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libreadline.so.6
check if is preloaded
ldd /usr/bin/isql-fb | grep readline
/lib/libreadline.so.6 (0x00007fc661d22000)
Then use isql-fb as usual
