Firebird is a relational database offering many ANSI SQL-92 features that runs on Linux, Windows, and a variety of Unix platforms. Firebird offers excellent concurrency, high performance, and powerful language support for stored procedures and triggers. It has been used in production systems, under a variety of names since 1981. . Firebird is a commercially independent project of C and C++ programmers, technical advisors and supporters developing and enhancing a multi-platform relational database management system based on the source code released by Inprise Corp (now known as Borland Software Corp) under the InterBase Public License v.1.0 on 25 July, 2000. Firebird2 is currently in alpha stage and for any real use you should use firebird packages (already in unstable). As the development of FireBird2 goes forward - I plan to upload FireBird2 packages to experimental. There's no packages of FB2 available at the moment and don't expect them too soon. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux greg.home.sente.pl 2.4.18-k6 #1 Sun Apr 14 12:43:22 EST 2002 i586 Locale: LANG=pl_PL.ISO-8859-2, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.ISO-8859-2 (ignored: LC_ALL set) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
