Just come back from another business trip and looking over messages in
lists....
Helen, I was the idea to help on Firebird-connect! I have also a contact
with someone 9at that moment I cannot remember the person, but can search
in my email archives). My idea was to translate most of pages in
Firebird-connect! to Bulgarian language to form a localized version of
FB-connect. I know - it is not great idea or much help, but I think it can
help on FB popularity. The response (a long time ago) was (rely on my
memory): "Ok, excellent we will keep you as your Bulgarian contact". And
that was all. I know - every is busy doing something else to make money to
pay mortgage and so on.... just my opinion in that case.

Cheers,
