Sorry for sort-of sidejumping this.

Am I still correct in thinking that all these fixes are applied to
2.5.2 and that I can quite safely install a 2.5.2 CS on an otherwise
"naked" Win2008R2x64 without expecting trouble?

I have a consulting session next week where I want to convince the
audience to use FB instead of MSSQL and would not enjoy to get
tar-and-feathered afterwards :-)

thanks,
