very good ideea :)
if you have enough time
There should be someone doing the PR work for firbird and posting the
news (releases,yafill merger) to important sites
:slashdot,newsforge,linuxtoday,theinquirer...

For example i have already posted to theinquirer
http://theinquirer.net/?article=13223
next we need posting to the other news sites
