The most important reason to supoort Python2.5 is “Jython”.

Jiri wrote his thoughts on howto apply list function to create denormalized view of data
From time to time I have an idea for helpful project I could do to help myself or people around me to finish some task faster/easier. And, of course, it often involves database. And though I’m a strong believer in normalization (3NF is must), at least during initial design, sometimes I see this project being partly simple and partly I want it done in no time (because I’m doing it in my own spare time) I think about storing data denormalized and doing the work in application.
…
Design it normalized, because it’s what you should do. But then you can create a simple view where you use some kind of “LIST” function (i.e. Firebird has exactly that named one). This view will create you denormalized form of data. With a small help from triggers you can also update that view hence underlying data (left as an exercise for reader).
Anderson Marques published the Firebird driver for Kohana Framework on github.
ps: I need to use another tweeter search operator Firebird + Database when i search for news .
Also the firebird nodejs driver is updated in the git version please check the changelog and the guide
The fix was “Only dump config params on failure to connect when verbose option is specified.”
