But let's hear other opinions as well, I'm not a > dictator ;-) ;-) Management = Firebird Admin List? Firebird 3 has quite a road for being ready for production, so there is additional time available to teach people in support list etc. that dialect 1 will be removed and that there is a migration dialect 2 available, IMHO it's a sign that dialect 1 is already deprecated. I vaguely remember a discussion on ODS 12, that Firebird 3 can be used only with ODS 12, thus we have to run through a backup/restore cycle, but I'm not up-to-date in that area, thus might be wrong due to the provider architecture etc. While it's not the same scenario as with D1, this would be another sign that upgrading to Firebird 3 ain't that straight-forward compared to older releases. If there is an agreement to remove D1 in Firebird 3 and if it isn't too late, I would mention the deprecation in the Firebird 2.5.2 Release Notes as a start already.
