I don't claim it is in the *best* interest. But, it is of significant
interest to the general masses. I also think it should be of some interest
to Firebird.

I for one am very glad that a multi-million dollar company is taking a
serious interest again in the development and marketing effort surrounding
InterBase. The way they are planning to do it (and I have reason to believe
they will come through) should provide a lot of synergy with the people on
Firebird.

If you want to make a more centralized portal for Firebird I think that is
excellent. But, you don't have to go about it in a way that slings any
condescension towards any other entity. Borland, IBDI or any other.
