I wonder if anyone considered joining Firebird to Google’s Summer of

PDO database API adds Firebird support
jrmarino writes “Pascal Data Objects (PDO) is a database API that works equally well on FPC and Delphi. When I introduced this 10 months ago, only MySQL 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0 were supported. Since then, I have moved the project to Sourceforge and recently added drivers for Firebird 1.5 and 2.0. Some new abstraction capabilities were also added.”

Ok, I know this is a totally sucky announcement not even worthy of
Firebird, but time keeps going by. I have yet to be able to get together
the info for a better one. So here is a very crude announcement.

Firebird support for DBExpress
Please support Firebird database with the DBExpress driver. A huge percent of the Delphi community are Firebird users and are claiming for this.
Or at least help the Firebird team to implement this support in DBX4.

New forums on DotNetFirebird.org
Because I’m not able to reply to all the questions about Firebird and .NET I’m getting, I’ve set up a new place to ask these questions: http://forums.dotnetfirebird.org. I’ll try to answer the questions if I know the answer. You might also get an answer from someone else if I’m too busy ;-).
