Re: [firebird-support] FB2 + Vulcan -> FB3 en route?
Yes, thanks for the correction, i've read the vulcan project long ago, so i can't remember the exact news about it, all i know that fb 3 is planned to merge vulcan and firebird to have better support on SMP.

No, apparently it's not; it either has happened or won't happen. I found a thread on fb-dev that reveals at least part of the history, especially the message by Bill Oliver of SAS: All of the key features from Vulcan have been front-ported to Firebird 2.5 beta. [Firebird-devel] status of vulcan project - James Gregurich - 03.08.09 http://markmail.org/thread/fzjh2xy2fzbvluih The Vulcan is on the attic for a reason. And hence FAQ 245 should reflect that fact, if only by pointing to that thread on Markmail. Michael

Re: [firebird-support] FB2 + Vulcan -> FB3 en route?
As far as i know, vulcan is another open source project derived from the open source interbase 6 version, so there is an intention to merge this two project into one firebird project and that will be called firebird 3 version.

[firebird-support] FB2 + Vulcan -> FB3 en route?
I stumbled upon a Vulcan on the attic … http://www.ibphoenix.com/resources/documents/attic - Vulcan Which made for some interesting reading, but then there's lots of documents and I started wondering about the relevance of it all … What is it? Turns out it's an FAQ I've never seen before: http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq245/ - What is Vulcan? The intention is to merge Firebird 2 and Vulcan code back and create Firebird 3. Is this what's currently happening? Michael
