Alexander has put up Release Candidate 1 binaries and source today, OdbcFb v.RC1-2.0.0148, for you to download and test. Please put these builds through their paces and report back (good and bad) to the firebird-odbc-devel list.

October 2008

Development has been in the doldrums for a couple of years, with departure of the sub-project's former coordinator, Vladimir Tsvigun, to new parts. Recently, Alexander Potapchenko, a senior developer from Red Soft, has agreed to become the new coordinator.

This month both Alexander and IBPhoenix have produced some test builds with the aim of getting the v.2 beta driver tested and released. They are working together to get the ODBC driver into shape and properly lodged in our official repositories. In the meantime, the builds are available to test, from the Red Soft and IBPhoenix sites, respectively.

Feedback to the ODBC-devel list, please - see link in the side menu.
