Firebird events and conferences all over the world
Specially for portuguese speakers, the site of the 3rd Firebird Developers Day (due in Brazil) conference is now online. Online subscriptions will be available after 1/May. Visit the site (in portuguese) here.
The 3rd Firebird Developers Day Brazilian conference will count with the presence of Holger Klemt (IBExpert), Alexey Kovyazin (IBSurgeon/IBDeveloper magazine) and Ann Harrison (IBPhoenix) as international speakers (along with many Brazilian speakers).
FDD can be a great oportunity for South American people to have contact with great names of the Firebird community, specially if they don’t want to spent a lot of money going to the International Conference (in Prague/Czech Republic).
The conference will take place in Piracicaba-SP, at 29 July (whole day).
Seems like it may be related to the FB Japanese user group. Sometimes, a few people from it post in the lists.
Here is the English version of that page and they had 2 presentations at Open source conference 2006 Tokyo : one is “Why to choose Firebird” the other is “How to build/debug Firebird”. [Ed:thanks for the link Cludio V.]

it was recently concluded that the original authors have the copyright
on papers that were published at the Firebird Conference, so I decided
to make my paper available to the public.
Some small portion of the text is outdated (based on version 0.4.0),
but you can read about history and basic ideas around the project:
