Why I find MySQL to be so bad compared to Firebird
MySQL is the most used Open Source database engine. I have personally used it for almost 10 years. I worked with versions 3.x, 4.x and 5.x of MySQL, but I also used other database engines, some of them handling the same “data-set size” as MySQL, while others have been smaller databases (mostly Desktop based databases such as SQLite, MS-Access and Paradox).
This is the first part of my complaint about MySQL and why I dislike it.

Mufin Music Player using Firebird
The free mufin player is the first media player to know the actual sound of your music collection to let you discover, manage, and listen to your music better. The mufin player helps you discover new music easier, create playlists automatically, or repair MP3s – and much more, of course!
This article says that Mufin is using “”Firebird SQL-Server Magix Edition” (huh?!).

People Around Firebird – John W Higgins
I spotted his interesting projects or forks on github
ED:i saw that you forked fb ruby library could you tell me a few notes on how you use it in sequel orm i want to add an post on firebirdnews.org if you want so also an small intro would be nice
wishdev said :
I basically just wrote an adapter for Sequel which uses the Fb driver to work with Firebird. The fork was necessary mostly to fix an issue with using the RETURNING clause to get back sequence generated primary keys.
As for any intro with respect to myself – I’m the type that keeps his head down in the gopher hole for the most part. I didn’t do a huge amount of work because the Sequel ORM is so well written it was easy to build a Firebird driver.
If you need/want any more info please feel free to ask 🙂
