Hello Horst,

I had thought that Kylix was open-sourced but imagine my surprise when I
researched Borland's Kylix page!  The Kylix Open Edition allows you to
create GPL Target applications but it appears that it is a proprietary
license itself.  I checked the Interbase page and once again I was sadly
mistaken.

I guess the public demand for open-source Interbase was just too good to let
it go as a product.
