Webring is OK if you have time to rummage through several links to find
what you want, but it's not much use if you want to search for - say -
French Firebird Sites, or Indonesian ones ;) I gave up bothering with
any of the webring lists a long time ago.

I would hope that the main site www.firebirdsql.org could be expanded to
provide an improved 'links' system, perhaps with planet.firebirdsql.org
as a direct entry point?

Something where non-english users would find a little more friendly
support and pointers to their own 'region' of the 'planet'.
