Ask the question directly to Jason. He's better positioned than me to
answer it. And, of what I'm hearing Jason is for Firebird and also is part
of some discussions regarding features and bug fixes in Firebird. If you
ask the question directly on IBO e-mail group on Yahoo, you might get your
answer. We're using Firebird and not planning to go back to IB. And, IBO
seems to be addressing some of the changes in Firebird 1.0.
