Introduction
============

Welcome to Firebird $MAJOR.$MINOR.


Intended Users
==============

Firebird $MAJOR.$MINOR has undergone extensive testing and is
intended for widespread production use. However, users
are recommended to follow standard practices before
deploying this release on a production server. ie:

 o Please make sure you read the installation
   readme and the release notes.

 o If you have data you value remember to back it up
   prior to installing this release.

 o It is recommended that you remove any previous
   version prior to installation. Uninstallation
   preserves configuration files and log files.

 o It is recommended that you carry out your own
   tests in a development environment prior to
   production deployment.


Known Issues
============

Windows Vista - The binary installer fails to start
Firebird as a service at installation time, however,
the service does start correctly after a reboot. As a
workaround, you can shift-right click on the Firebird
control panel applet, choose 'Run as...' and start the
service from there.


Features in this release
========================

Please see the Release Notes for details of new
features.


Installation
============

Installation issues are covered in detail in the
Installation Guide available in the doc directory after
install. A brief summary of installation issues can
also be found in the installation_readme.txt, also
available from the doc directory after installation.


Reporting Bugs
==============

Before you report a bug:

 o Check you know how Firebird works.
   Maybe it is not a bug at all.

 o Perhaps some has already reported this? Browse
   existing bug reports here:

	http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/secure/BrowseProject.jspa

 o If in doubt why not discuss the problem on the
   Firebird-devel list? You can subscribe here:
