StackOverflow will publish ads for free (only for Open Source projects.) I have made an image for Firebird but lacked rights/points to upload it. Douglas uploaded it, but we need more votes to put the spotlight over our bird. If you have an account in StackOverflow with at last 15 reputation points, please, vote now.

By gargantuan effort, Sean Leyne and his colleagues at Broadview have been reconstructing our infrastructure from scratch. The main website http://www.firebirdsql.org is up but some pieces, such as Windows snapshots, are still missing.  Windows snapshots should be available some time today.
The other servers are more challenging, requiring radical reconstruction using new versions of underlying software, and will take time.
For now, if you find broken links (other than those to our other servers) then please feel free to inform us via a message to this list.
More info as it comes to light.

One of the things I like with Firebird is their stored procedure features. In my experience with MSSQL and MySQL5 doing stored procedure has been easier with Firebird and yet powerful. I fell in love with it and making stored procedure as my usual solution for data manipulation.

I’d like to announce the first public release of fbclient, a binding of the Firebird client library to the Lua language, that is, a collection of pure Lua modules that allows you to connect and execute queries against the Firebird Relational Database.
Project website: http://code.google.com/p/fbclient/

As I already blogged before, a fork is not enough to keep MySQL alive for all future, if Oracle, as the copyright holder of MySQL, would at any point decide that they should kill MySQL or make parts of MySQL closed source.
Firebird is trully *open* (in all aspects). Nobody owns Firebird, nobody can buy it, nobody can close its sources, nobody can charge for it! So, if you are using Firebird, you don’t need to have such worries.
