I personally believe that the last thing in the world that the FB community needs is yet more fragmentation of where to find an answer to a problem. There are dozens of blogs, websites, forums, etc. already out there for Firebird and yet this forum is where people go to get an answer to a programming or administration question. Its known - its consistent and I think it would do a great disservice to Firebird by trying to fragment where content is even further. At least I know that if I need to find a support related answer to a question, I can come here. Might not have the greatest features, but its the content that is IMHO more important than how its packaged.

My vote would be to leave it alone. There are more important other issues requiring time investment for Firebird out there that you could look into if you wanted.
