As far as I know, yes. With help of Philippe Makowski who makes Windows
builds (I don't have Visual Studio).

I'll ask Philippe to make it.

There is some documentation in .NET driver (at least it was in
Subversion), but it's outdated (doesn't contain protocol enhancements
made in FB 2.x) and it's not really easy to understand either. I found
that the best information source is to read JayBird sources (all this
low-level stuff is in single file). However, JayBird also doesn't
implement the latest enhancements.

Nope. It was considered as interesting and cool idea, but it wasn't
discussed in depth (no impl. proposal) so it's not on the Roadmap up to
3.0 version.
