Ok, in that case I'll take back some of my words. Would you please remove my name from the maintainers if it is still there? I don't expect to be able to contribute or fix anything anymore. -- Jouni Ahto On 01/20/2015 09:33 PM, marius adrian popa wrote: interbase extension is maintained and a

At least one mail didn't bounce. The situation with Interbase extension, in my opinion: it's dead meat and should most probably be just removed. Nobody is currently, to my knowledge, maintaining it. Even the birth of said extension was a bit troublesome, when I had just for the fun of it writt
