Sun adquiere a MySQL

Al parecer esta es otra de las noticias que nos trae este año, el interes que mantenia Sun Microsystems sobre el gestor de base de datos mas popular se ha visto manifestado al adquirirlo de una manera un tanto peculiar, en el blog de MySQL se escribe un hilo donde se aclara como se agrego MySQL a Sun; siendo el nucleo de MySQL de la comunidad Open Source.

-----------------------------------------
Given Sun’s proven track record as the largest contributor to Open Source, I
think MySQL users have plenty of reason to feel happy about the acquisition.
There are many companies that attempt to ride the wave of positive attention
towards Open Source, but in my judgement, Sun gets it right. Sun gets Open
Source. Java has been released under the GPL. There’s the OpenSolaris operating
system. There’s Open Office / Star Office. There’s the GlassFish application
server. There’s the NetBeans IDE tool. And more.
