Well, hopefully there will be lots of downloads of the "explorer"
editions; DevCo have certainly started the promotion campaign.

Our job now is to:
(1) make a Firebird installer that puts Firebird right into a Turbo
install (include the FB.Net driver in the Delphi.Net and C# versions);
(2) include documentation that shows the extensions of FB versus IB
(working from the 1.5 + 2.0 release notes, that should be not so hard);
(3) make sure that there is link to an appropiate page at the
firebirdsql.org site in the comments section of each article about
DevCo and Turbo.

If both DevCo and we are successful, it could lead to perhaps as much
as 1 million trial downloads in the next 6 months.
