I don't think he created the project just for the Howto (Brendan -
correct me if I'm wrong). There's the DBServerToggler tool, and a
short coexistence Howto.

It would be nice to have the Toggler as a module in the Firebird
project, but that's entirely up to Brenden of course. Now at least
he's his own boss :-)

The Howto *is* interesting whether you use Brenden's tool or not. I
would like to XML-ize it for our manual module, if Brenden agrees.
