Jamie,

First of all, I have to admin that I have been using InterBase from v4
series and I worked as a Delphi/C++Builder/Win32 developer in the past.
I love the way IB/FB is. The only oddity it has is, you know, the way it
maps isc4.gdb users to Unix users. It didn't cause any problem about
this yet, though. Overall, I love it, but the build system and its
layout of source tree. It's just cumbersome in that area. There was no
autoconf/automake'd, traditional way of building it; and the build
process was, well, a bit, tricky.

But that's not the problem. I'd love if you could please stop inserting
Firebird everywhere? Don't get me wrong, this gets more irritating, even
for me. There are a lot more things to worry about the DBMS thing for
GNOME than just features and license.

Thanks,
