Is it technically plausible to import migrate existing hsqldb databases
into firebird (without the use of hsqldb/java) ? For example the
flatpak scenario is a LibreOffice without java available and firebird
by default is nice for that, but even nicer would be the ability to
open preexisting hsqlsb databases.
