It looks like this site is designed to fool a newcomer into thinking that they've stumbled onto the MySQL site -- there is a tiny mention on the splash page that 'if you are looking for MySQL AB, click here'. I'm sorry, but when I was first looking into MySQL, I had no idea what 'MySQL AB' was. I would probably have assumed that it was some kind of open-source claim-jumper.
Oh wait, that's what NuSphere is. At any rate, "becoming a member" of NuSphere looks like a great way to get your email address harvested. Apart from that, the site doesn't offer anything that you can't get at www.mysql.com (and you can get a lot more at the latter). Nothing technically illegitimate, but shifty nonetheless. -- Erik --- Andy Woolley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > For a long time now Nusphere has been treading on far too many > peoples toes > (who do they think they are) not only are they annoying MySQL users > with > their exasperating antics they are also trying to steal MySQL from > the very > people that actually wrote the software. > > Dont forget,they have registered http://www.mysql.org for some very > bizzare > reasons. ===== Microsoft e[X]tra [P]roprietary -- Is this where you really wanted to go today ? -- http://www.redhat.com/about/opinions/xp.html __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
