    It'll be interesting to see what they do with Sun behind them. I think this will only result in good things in regards to both the development of MySQL as well as in terms of competition between Sun, Oracle, and MS.

    I don't see this resulting in anything bad because as someone commented on this story on Digg:

    The latest vesrion of MySQL is GPL. No matter what SUN does later, any previously downloaded mysql is GPL ... so if sun screws it up, someone can just fork it to a new project...
