This release contains, among other small improvements and fixes, support for Srp256 (and quite a few related changes, like support for SPB version 3) and a fix for performance regression for synchronous code paths introduced in 8.0.0.0.

An overview of all the changes can be found on GitHub.

You can get the bits from NuGet FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient, FirebirdSql.EntityFrameworkCore.Firebird and EntityFramework.Firebird.

Many thanks to BMI Leisure and Vertec for sponsoring several important features in this release!
