I would doubt if any forking would occur. So far none of the major Open
Source projects has suffered a fork. What might be interesting is how
postgres and Interbase cross pollinate each other. Postgres has some
geometric and spacial data types built in that might be implemented in
Interbase. I guess it depends on how restrictive the IB license is. It
would be great if the teams got together to put out the Most Awsome
