Firebird git repository visualization with gource (Full 12 years of history)
- barking 14y agoVery nice to look at. If I understand this it's like there has generally been about 4-6 contributors at any one time and the codebase hasn't grown hugely in size over the period. Like the emphasis has been on maintenance. Which I suppose is probably what you want to see with this type of software
- mariuz 14y agoYes the core is a tight crew http://www.firebirdsql.org/en/team-members/ http://www.firebirdsql.org/en/team-members/ and 2.5.x is a robust engine and there are customers that are happy with it There also contribution for configuration scripts (you can spot in the video in the win32/posix folder) , documentation and drivers (python/jdbc/.net/node.js) are in other repositories and it's a lot easier to contribute and understand maybe because let's say python is easier to read than C++ and relational engines
