14 August 2003	At long last, new web site, this should solve FTP problems that my old hostings service had. Special Notes: ibCollate does not currently work with Firebird 1.5, fix in progress. ibCollate does NOT support InterBase 6.00 or 6.01. Any other version of InterBase should work.
7 June 2002	Release 0.991 of ibCollate (Windows) - case insensitive collations for InterBase. Over 100 Collations now supported! Accent insensitive collations now supported! Columns up to 130 characters can be indexed. InterBase version 6.5, 5.x, 4.x and Firebird 1.0 supported! InterBase version 6.0 and 6.01 are NOT supported. See the release notes at ibCollate3.html Download at collate020607.zip
31 July 2000	Beta Release 2 of ibCollate (Windows) - case insensitive collations for InterBase. 63 Collations now supported! InterBase version 6.0 (open source release) supported! See the release notes at ibCollate2.html Download at ibCollate.zip
11 July 2000	Beta Release of ibCollate - case insensitive collations for InterBase. This pre-compiled library provides 49 additional collation orders. See the release notes at ibCollate1.html Download at ibCollate1.zip
11 July 2000	InterBase Collation Construction Kit released. This kit enables a C programmer to create new character sets and collations for InterBase. Update: 14 August 2003 The instructions in this kit are accurate for InterBase 4, InterBase 5,or Interbase 6.5, but not InterBase 6.00 or 6.01. For InterBase 6.00 and 6.01 there are bugs in InterBase which prevent easy loading of collation drivers. Contact me directly if you really need to do this, and I'll try to talk you into upgrading to a different InterBase version. The instructions are accurate for Firebird 1.0, but the linkage model to a collation driver changed for Firebird 1.5. Download at CollateKit.Zip
