Hi Guys, Let's say that every mysql developer (here I am thinking only persons, not companies) that wants mysql to go forward would contribute from $500,00 to $1500,00, how much are we talking about? And we would have a 100% community owned and community driven open source initiative...
Course, there are many others management problems and legal issues to solve, but if anybody would join me I would be the first one! And also would be a REMARKABLE adventure and maybe the next step for the open source initiatives around the world... Best Regards Bruno B. B.
