Does the Firebird project use the boost libraries? Some developer gurus I know, are highly impressed with boost. Also, how do you get the latest source code for 2.5 or 3.0 Firebird? Finally, Is the publication "Conceptual Architecture for InterBase/Firebird" from 2002, located at http://www.ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&page=ibp_waterloo, the most current overall description of Firebird's architecture? Thanks in advance for any answers!!
