Ok, I know this is a totally sucky announcement not even worthy of

the info for a better one. So here is a very crude announcement.
Delphi for PHP supports Firebird
David I just posted in his blog that the new Delphi for PHP supports Firebird, along with many other databases.

Firebird support for DBExpress
Please support Firebird database with the DBExpress driver. A huge percent of the Delphi community are Firebird users and are claiming for this.
Or at least help the Firebird team to implement this support in DBX4.
New forums on DotNetFirebird.org
Because I’m not able to reply to all the questions about Firebird and .NET I’m getting, I’ve set up a new place to ask these questions: http://forums.dotnetfirebird.org. I’ll try to answer the questions if I know the answer. You might also get an answer from someone else if I’m too busy ;-).

Delphi for PHP and Delphi 2007 for Win32
CodeGear announced two new Delphi products: Delphi 2007 for Win32, to generate Win32 native applications for Windows 2000,XP and Vista, and Delphi for PHP, a new product to develop PHP applications. Both products cames with native InterBase drivers, so probably it can be used with Firebird too, and of course there are also tons of third party native components for Firebird access. More information in the CodeGear site.
