Hi Thomas,

Perspective is avery good point; I’m sure it’s a major effort for the developers involved in all the upcoming features and I’m looking forward to getting my hands on quite a few of them, for instance Mapping of OS users/groups to DB users/roles.

But my question was not about single features. It is about the general direction Firebird is heading: will it come closer to NoSQL approaches, for instance? Is there a strategy beyond the feature driven roadmap for v3 / v4 or will it stay feature driven?

Cheers,
Michael
