Paul,

I'm interested in what you are doing.

My introduction to relational DBMS was through a product variously called VAX/VMS Rdb or Rdb/VMS, or DEC Rdb. since late 1994, it's been Oracle Rdb (not to be confused with Oracle RDBMS).

There's no question that Interbase was derivative from Rdb, at least in terms of some of the concepts, and in terms of the names of some of the data structures.

I know next to nothing about Interbase, but I still know Rdb quite well. Maybe I could help you in that regard.
