It is, however, being undertaken! It is not imminent, though - not
surprisingly - it's a mega-job and the Elves are but few. See
http://firebirdsql.org/index.php?op=devel&sub=doc. Apart from
telling you what is going on, it also links you to the Firebird
Documentation Index. There are actually a lot resources around...

There is indeed a Firebird 2 Supplement which was published (in
electronic format) by IBPhoenix almost exactly one month
ago. Details here:
http://www.ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&page=ibp_firebird_book

Like the Firebird Book, it not a freebie---unless you purchase a copy
of The Firebird Book from IBPhoenix...then you get the Supplement and
all updates free. The Supplement has been designed so that you can
print out the new bits and tape them into the corresponding sections
of the main book.
