Still no response?

I'd hate to see this excellent publicity opportunity wasted. I'm sure I'm not
the most qualified of the members of this list to do a technical article on
using Firebird, but I'd consider it if nobody else wants to. I don't have much
experience with events, but I've done some custom UDFs. The ability to add user
defined functions is pretty unique to Interbase/Firebird, isn't it?
