Firebird has the same codebase as Interbase 6.0, but its development is managed by a team of independent developers, not from Borland itself. Firebird 0.94 (the 1st Firebird release) is essentially the same as Interbase 6.0, Firebird 1.0, the new Firebird release, adds a few syntax constructs (mainly select first n skip n *, substring()), and a fixes a few bugs. It uses the same protocol as Interbase. BTW I am patching the Interbase module tests in ext/interbase/tests but I need karma to commit the mods, as I only have PEAR karma.
