I did some minor cleanup/update to the Get to know Firebird in 2 minutes paper. English (html and pdf) and pt-br versions are up to date (version 1.3). Some new info was inserted, dead/broken links removed/fixed.
Updates for the other languages are welcome. If you wanna help, download the html of your native language (or create new one based in the English version), update it using a html editor that not mess with the html code and layout (or just use notepad if you are hardcore developer), and send it back to me.
Poll is in the sidebar of FirebirdNews main page. You can mark up to 3 options 😉
