在 Sun 網站上有篇 Sun to Acquire MySQL
Sun announced an agreement to acquire MySQL AB, an open source icon and developer of one of the world’s fastest growing open source databases. This acquisition accelerates Sun’s position in enterprise IT to now include the $15 billion database market and reaffirms Sun’s position as the leading provider of platforms for the Web economy and its role as the largest commercial open source contributor.

所以 Sun 要買下 MySQL 了，這到底是好是壞呢？
短期內，照 Sun 的作法，mysql 應該還是有 free 的社群版本
不過，在背後技術支援，現在有 Sun 強力的背書，或許也是好事吧

我常遇到客戶，吵著要用 Solaris 而不用 Linux，吵著要用 Oracle 而不敢用 MySQL
現在 MySQL 被 Sun 買下，相信客戶應該比較不會再靠么了吧…XD
