This introduction was copied from old site, of course.
As I understood, you are native English speaker. It would be great if you could contribute by re-writing history in correct English.

Go ahead and write it. There is no problem to put text or format it.

The Historic Reference (http://www.firebirdtest.com/en/historical-reference/ ) is in need of a rewrite and update (looks like it was copied directly from the old site)
Problems I notice on a quick glance are: * Introduction is worded in a weird way (and grammatically incorrect) * The historic overview is not really coherent (and some parts might be better used as background information to the history, than the actual history) * Firebird history overview ends in 2002 with apparently the RC2 of Firebird 1.0 * Developers listed are ancient: some of them are no longer contributing, some of the newer are missing and some people are seriously in need of a more recent picture (if only to save them from embarassement :P)
