Perhaps you'd well to join the Firebird Foundation and contribute the $50
USD annual membership dues. Since you admit that your whole business
depends on Firebird, you might consider it profitable to contribute, to the
product's development, that insignificant ammount, yearly. That way you
could, actualy, talk about shame, shamelessly. :-)

Cheers,

Mauricio
