FDD – getting ready for the conference

July 14, 2008 Cantu One comment

Next saturday (19/July), we will have the 5th edition of the Firebird Developers Day conference in Brazil. This is the biggest Firebird conference (regarding number of attendees) in the world. This year, there will be around 580 attendees in the conference, and if you dream about how would be to organize such big conference, the picture below can give you an idea: 600 folders, assembled in 3h30 by four “experienced” people (yeh, we work fast) 😉 Each folder contains a mousepad, pen, magazine, sponsor papers, CD, etc.

In the next days, I plan to post some reports and videos about the conference preparatives, etc. Stay tuned to FirebirdNews 😉

FDD is organized by FireBase.

For those who don’t regularly visit the Firebird project home page, the Firebird Documentation Subproject is pleased to announce the availability of the Firebird 1.5 Language Reference Update. This reference documents all the changes in and additions to the Firebird SQL language since the fork from InterBase 6.

Translations are under way, as are versions for Firebird 2.0 and 2.1.
