Firebird is also opensource.

Several days ago, you posted the same question, if I recall correctly.

To answer your question: Subversion supports pluggable backends which does
not mean the project intends to do the development of one any time soon. You
are welcome however to organise the effort required; all contributions are
very welcome.

bye,

Erik.

  

Ok, I can take a hint. If I'm not welcome I will not bother you anymore

BTW: Not all open source has the same license; which makes some open source
very different from others...
  

but take a look at http://www.firebirdsql.org/ff/foundation/FBFactsheet.html
The Berkeley db is not match for Firebrid, not even closer, and the best part is yet to come.
The real one handicap is that FirebirdSQL is not installed by default on any OS.
And, yes, FirebirdSQL is as free as a "bird".
Have a good day sir.
Doru.
