Me. I tried to explain that IBPhoenix and Firebird were different,
but that didn't sink in. The employees number, specifically, does
count people with grants as employees - which they are in the sense
that they do work and get paid. Believe it or not, having some
employees makes a product seem more solid to corporate types who
are thinking about moving to it.

As for the date - well, yes, I did give the start date of the code
base rather than the start date of the project.
