Yes, slooow nowadays and no frequent point releases. 3.0.4 released one 
year ago. Official or not, we need a simple, up to date, Firebird only, 
native GUI.

It looks like they are going to close the site, but the mailing list 
feature is expected to remain online (as far as I can tell from the 
announcement, which to be honest isn't very clear).

> We will lose all the content?

If the site closes, yes. However, I have created a backup of the 
messages from firebird-support, firebird-php, firebird-python, 
firebird-java, ibobjects and ib-conversions, and I'm currently looking 
at generating a basic accessible archive.

I don't have backups for firebird-general, firebird-coredocs and 
firebird-architect, as those seem to be closed groups, and the tool I 
wrote for the other groups isn't working. I probably need to add some 
authentication, but I haven't tried that yet.
