I'm working on a project for a friend and I hope to use Firebird 2 as the
backend, I've been testing the latest release and so far I haven't found any
problems and it seems solid and a fair speed and feature improvement over
V1.5.x. The major issue for this project is that I'm going to need to do
replication, which up until now I've never had to deal with since all the
Interbase / Firebird projects that I've worked on have always had only one
site and in this case there's going to be three sites two of which will have
one person each doing some data entry / editing. I used Google to search for
information of Firebird and Replication and I only found a couple things,
FiBRE and IBReplicator. Since this is more or less a charity project (I'm
not getting paid anything and they don't have a lot of money to spend) I
think that leaves IBReplicator off the list since it's commercial (and I
don't know if it would work with Firebird 2 anyway), Fibre is free but it's
also only in a pre-alpha development state which makes me nervous since I'm
going to have to trouble shoot any problems. So other than these two are
there any other options available?
