The Firebird Project has begun releasing source and binary kits of Firebird 2.0 Release Candidate 2. As usual, the Linux builds will be available first. Please do not flood the support lists if a kit you want is delayed. We have no control over how long it takes the mirrors to catch up.

Firebird 2.0 RC1 is out
The Firebird Project is pleased to announce the release of the first release candidate of Firebird 2.0, for final testing. Download kits are available for Windows and Linux, including x64 Linux. However, due to hardware failure on the Windows build system, there will be initial delays in accessing the Win32 kits. Patience please!
