News from the Firebird developers.
I have just released a classic version of Firebird V2.03 for HPUX 11. This is a 64bit version for PA-RISC 2.0. The current install mechanism as per Firebird 1.5.x uses a tar file and scripts to install firebird into /opt/firebird etc. I think the time has now come to try and write a depot file so that we can use the HPUX installer to install firebird.
From Carlos Guzmán Álvarez:
I have decided to leave the project, the reason is mainly that i have left to do development in my spare time and really i’m going to continue in that situation for a long time, really, right now the last thing i want when i reach home is get coding again
I want to give great thanks to all of you for your help and support in all the time i was active in the development of the .NET provider 🙂
i would like to show you how hard the Core Developers are working (as if you don’t know that already …).
A little graph for you ….

The Firebird Reference Documentation Sub-Project has the goal to create a comprehensive Reference Documentation for the Firebird SQL Database.
PS: Anyone can pick a topic and write a piece of documentation for it. It’s small pieces on a per-keyword-basis, with no markups, just plain text with a very basic structure skeleton – so no skills in html, docbook or anything like that are required. The plan is to keep the “entry level” very low so everyone here can help. Final doc will look something like this.
