I think the list was created to discuss that outside ib-support and IBDI.
What you have declare here it's what we have been discuss there (I'm putting
myself there, but I joined that list a few days ago and find out that the
discussion is very active there).

Also, there's a pool there running now that is something like 'what do you
think? Create a new one or cooperate with an effort already running?'

Yahoo groups: the one's that are important are the ones that are mentioned
in the Firebird Web Site, and are the one's that people use.
