I believe you're in error. The appearance of many MySql related sites
is the consequence of MySql being a success, not the other way round.
First, the official Firebird needs to do a good job and only if it
does, others will be interested and make "inofficial" sites.
I am mainly interested in the first part: Firebird shall look like
the venture of peoples who know what they are doing.
