Philippe Makowski started one branch but with pyfirebirdsql https://bitbucket.org/pmakowski/sqlalchemy My guess is that you can do the same and create a new fdb based driver just with a simple copy of kinterbasdb based and replace kinterbas with fdb https://bitbucket.org/sqlalchemy/sqlalchemy/src/ea4bd6b54789/lib/sqlalchemy/dialects/firebird But i wait for others to comment before i start
