Management
The affairs of the Foundation are managed by a Management Committee which is elected annually during the Annual General Meeting, by voting members of the Foundation. The management committee governs in accordance with the rules of the association and is also mandated to create and delegate tasks to sub-committees as needs arise.
Meetings of the Foundation are generally conducted in an online forum.
Before incorporation, the affairs of the Foundation were managed by the FirebirdSQL Foundation Steering Group. This group elected officers and committee members to manage the affairs of the Foundation until the first Annual General Meeting, which took place in December 2002.
In June, 2005, by a special resolution, the name of the foundation was changed from its original name The FirebirdSQL Foundation.
