Annoucements about Firebird oficial releases.
Firebird 2.0 Debian packages
Hi, everybody,
After much delay, I’ve finally prepared debian packages of 2.0 branch of firebird. They can be reached at [1]. This is the RC4 release from 13th of August.
These packages conflict with 1.5.3 series, so if you want to give your databases a try (strongly encouraged), backup them with 1.5.3 *before* installing 2.0 packages.
Please give these a hard time testing and don’t forget to send feedback to pkg-firebird-general@lists.alioth.debian.org. Reading Release Notes[2] would help avoiding common problems.
Firebird 1.5.3 SS for MacOS (x86)
Users of “Intel” version of Apple Macintosh can now download a Firebird 1.5.3 SuperServer version for that platform. Thanks to Gili Buzaglo.
FB 2.0 RC4 is coming…
The releases notes for FB 2.0 RC4 is already available here. Installers and binaries are currently being built.

There is a conference about Open Source, Web development and Databases at
the end of June in Sofia, Bulgaria. You can see
http://wtconferences.com/2006/index.php for more info.
I will make a lecture about Firebird and now I make my presentation and
develop the information to present. Almost all of lecture I will present
Firebird current version, to make it more popular here in Bulgaria. I also
plan to include information about FB 2 at the end of lecture – new things,
performance optimization, etc.
