Sun Buys MySQL for $1 Billion

 

“I hope this is good for the open source community!”

Sun Microsystems which ic currently  endorsing PostgreSQL  is about to buy MySQL AB for 1 billion dollars: $800 million in cash for MySQL’s privately held stock and another $200 million in options.

If that so, it is like Microsoft buying Linux…  I hope that this will turn good for MySQL and MySQL users.
