Rod, from application programmer's point of view IB6.0x and FB1 are
close to be twins. Except of amount of bugs, of course, FB is much
more clean and slightly faster. I can't recall any other bug-dependent
code except mentioned ambigious queries and sequence of checks and
triggers. What about additional keywords - I can recall only
FIRST-SKIP, BREAK, CURRENT_ROLE.

I think it should be more stable on FB1 than on IB6. FB2 is in
progress, I don't like predictions on speed of such processes, so I
think if you can't wait for some monthes, perhaps half a year, it is
reasonable to migrate to FB1. About

It is'nt enough to change server, you should re-compile triggers
under FB.
