Oracle to buy Sun

Just in case you hadn't heard it, Oracle is buying Sun for $7.4 billion. I wonder what this means for the (already scattered) MySQL community. I hope they treat the community well.

    Blimey - that is a lot of money! Yeah mySQL needs to attain a protected status - away from these big company takeovers. Worrying times but fingers crossed all should be good!
