Inprise/Borland Introduces InterBase(R) 6.0 Now Free and Open Source on
Linux(R), Windows(TM) and Solaris(R)
http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/000725/ca_inprise_2.html
InterBase 6.0 has been released under a variant on the Mozilla Public
License (MPL) V1.1. Developers using InterBase under this license can modify
the code or develop applications without being required to open source them.
The open source license applies to all platforms.
This is BIG NEWS! An industrial strength cross platform open source DBMS!
If any one has the time, a set of Ada bindings would be nice......
You can use it now through ODBC and ADO (via GNATCOM), but Ada direct would
be important for cross platform development.
