(We really should move this to IBDI before Helen kick us all)

But, (while Helen is sleeping). the most relevant part of this article for us - Firebird users - is:
"But which will emerge as winners? "On my radar screen, I'm seeing some interest in MySQL, somewhat less with PostgreSQL. I'm hearing nothing about InterBase/Firebird or SAPDB," says Gartner analyst Jon Rubin.

Users are willing to invest in MySQL and PostgreSQL because they appear to have more momentum behind them and therefore a better future, he says."

I'm with Claudio when he says that we must choose the rigth tool for the job, but first we must do something to make Firebird appear in the 'tools list'.

words, maybe it is possible to support him with more information about
FB and suggest him to write part 2 of the article?

Best regards, Alexander V.Nevsky.
