No. At the moment Jaybird does not support setting the database
parameters on creation (page size, character set).

The default character set is not that big issue, since it is possible to
change it right after creation by direct update of the rdb$database
table. But the page size is not that easy - at the moment the only
workaround is to restore the database from backup.

What about Javadoc in the Jaybird 2.1.x archive?

Re. Firebird website - we are currently in the process of website
redesign, so any suggestion how to improve it are welcome.

As to Jaybird documentation. I have wrote a programmers reference, it is
at the moment in OpenOffice.org format and not yet published on the
web, only in the Firebird documentation project CVS. But we are working
in that direction.
