I've only met some of those people a few times, but based on their public reputation, yes, this is very probably true. Even so, in my earlier research I just noted it as one point among many, more like a standard thing to consider without implying anything about persons behind SFC/SFLC specifically. And: if Oracle is still donating them money, I'd rather wish they can keep it :-) It's certainly a better cause than larger yacht for Larry! henrik -- [email protected] +358-40-8211286 skype: henrik.ingo irc: hingo www.openlife.cc My LinkedIn profile: http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=9522559 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~drizzle-discuss More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
