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.

The intention is to merge Firebird 2 and Vulcan code back and create Firebird 3. Is this what's currently happening? 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

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.

Check FAQ 245 the URL of which I posted [see below]: Vulcan was a separate project (fork) programmed by Jim Starkey. It took early Firebird 2.0 alpha sources in order to bring better SMP (multi-CPU) support. Michael What is it?
