This question is directed more towards Jason, I guess.

We are currently deciding whether we will use Interbase or Firebird as our
base database. Interbase is supported by Borland, but costs money to
install. Firebird is free, but doesn't have the commercial commitment to be
here in a few years... It is my understanding that these two products will
not support the same database format as they currently do.

This brings three main questions that will guide our decision to go either
way...
1. If Firebird and Interbase start to diverge, will IBObjects continue to
support both? If not, which database would probably be supported? (I
assume interbase - but you never know)
2. Are there any gotchas to using Firebird right now? Can I simply install
Firebird instead of interbase and run my app?
3. What comments have people made after swapping between Interbase and
Firebird?

Am I just worrying about nothing?
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
Anthony
