Twenty bucks a year to hold the domain name. I'll do it if a couple of
folks volunteer to help set up the page.

Lets register the domain www.keep-mysql-open.com, build a champain,
and ask all our partners, clients and friends to support to it?
And let's make some noise... Let's engage the society and big
companies like Google, Facebook, twitter, 37Signals, Amazon, Percona,
etc. And starting talking to the media like TechCrunch.com,
BusinessWeek, ZD.Net, etc.
Without society's engagement we won't acomplish anything!

Quoting mos <mo...@fastmail.fm>:
Instead of forming a group hug and singing kumbuya to save MySQL, why
don't we take some action to prevent Oracle from keeping
(destroying/crippling) MySQL?
Who are the regulatory bodies that will decide whether Oracle can keep
MySQL? Both in Europe and North America? Asia?
What are their email addresses? They may not realize how destructive
Oracle can be to the future of MySQL and the number of MySQL database
installations this will affect.
I think we should start a writing campaign to the regulatory bodies to
force (or encourage) them to have Oracle to sell or spin off MySQL to
another party. What we need is ACTION.
So if someone could provide us with the names of these regulatory
parties and their email addresses, we can try to light a fire under
them to put pressure on Oracle. A web page to SaveMySQL would also help
get our message across.
What do you think guys? Can someone provide us with the names and email
addresses of the regulatory bodies, or would you rather I post the
lyrics to kumbuya?
