Hello,

About 8 months ago, I had proposed to put Firebird experimental, at least
the migration process.
It's been done but Firebird bugs kept on piling up (I don't talk about
migration process one) and too rare fixes happened.
I know that some bugs may be due to the fact we use an old Firebird version.
Indeed we use first version version of 3.0.0 Firebird library whereas 3.0.5
and even 4.0 beta have been released.
(I had tried twice to upgrade:
- towards 3.0.2 https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/37488 but there were
SSE4 pbs on Mac
- towards 3.0.4 https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/67180 but there were
failing LO test 
)

Anyway, I propose to make Firebird entry appear in embedded database
creation part only in Experimental part.

Anyone against this?

Julien
