For my own enjoyment I am in the middle of writing an Internal
AOLServer Driver for Interbase v6. The first platform will be
Windows, but I hope the driver will port to Linux with very little
additional effort.
Particular areas I hope to address include:
* Performance
* Thread safety
* Error handling
* Support for the Interbase v6 datatypes (DATE + TIME)
* Support for Interbase v6 dialects
* Support for different character sets
* Stored procedures
* Blobs
* Test scripts
* ADP examples
* Documentation
It is currently going well, and I expect an early beta to be available
by the end of September.
