As already indicated by Frank, it would be better to use fdb (or pyfirebirdsql), kinterbasdb is no longer actively maintained since 2007. Some comments - Your style is conversational which is helpful for an introduction, but I think the stream-of-thought parts need to be a more compact and less 'personal'. - I think that as a result of the stream-of-thought, some sections raise questions, but don't explicitly answer them, or posit a conclusion, without explaining it (eg in Choosing our Transaction Handling) - Add some more in-depth technical details on what the code does (or add some references to documentation) - The code on page 3/4 has an SQL injection bug, specifically: "lower(name) like '%%%s%%'" % quote(flt) Either avoid the SQL injection or specifically point this out with a warning Some language nitpicking - i should be I - Don't capitalize words that shouldn't be capitalized in English I haven't carefully reviewed the python code, as I haven't actively done things with Python for years.

In fact, I released this message only yesterday, having had no notifications from SF about it. On going into the Admin interface, I found the forwarding address for admin had been deleted and there was a small pile of SPAM there, along with Nico's message for moderation. Maybe we need to think about a migration to Google groups or Yahoo groups for this list. We can no longer get the subscriber list but I have an archive going back to Noah's flood. It should not be too hard to assemble a migration list.
