Firebird 2.0.1 Sub-release

On March 21 the Firebird Project made the first sub-release since the 2.0 release in November, 2006. It adds no new features (those are coming in v.2.1) but provides a large number of bug-fixes and a few improvements. It is highly recommended that v.2.0 installations be upgraded to get the benefits of these.

Firebird v2.0 Released

The Firebird Project officially released the much-anticipated version 2.0 of its open source Firebird relational database software during the opening session of the fourth international Firebird Conference in Prague, Czech Republic.

Firebird 2.0 is the happy culmination of more than two years' efforts from a broad-ranging, truly international community of dedicated developers and supporters. It brings with it a large collection of long-awaited enhancements that significantly improve performance, security and support for international languages and realise some desirable new SQL language features. Under the surface, it also provides a much more robust code platform from which the re-architecting planned for Firebird 3.0 is proceeding. (0 comments)

Firebird 1.0.3 maintenance update

The Firebird project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the v1.0.3 maintenance release. It is a testament to the robustness of Firebird 1.0 that no major problems have been found that have required fixing. However, almost six months have passed since the Fb 1.0.2 and several bug fixes and enhancements have appeared. Rather than letting them molder indefinitely it is better to get them out into the big wide world. (1 comments)
