hmmm... a developer might not (won't) give you voting rights? (is there sucj a thing!!!)
however, if you put together a number of really skilled c/c++ (whatever) developers, then you could easily take the current existing sourcebase of code, and go ahead and fork your own version, and never need to worry about what oracle is going to do with the current tree... of course i'd have a better chance of winning the lottery!! but stranger thing have happened... but you should also remember that some major companies are using mysql for various projects, and they could/might get together to form a dev core team to keep it moving... peace.. -----Original Message----- From: Marc Christopher Hall [mailto:m...@hallmarcwebsites.com] Sent: Monday, April 20, 2009 6:58 AM To: 'Daniel Brown' Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] 800 pound gorilla -----Original Message----- From: paras...@gmail.com [mailto:paras...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Daniel Brown Sent: Monday, April 20, 2009 9:52 AM To: Marc Christopher Hall Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] 800 pound gorilla On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 09:48, Marc Christopher Hall <m...@hallmarcwebsites.com> wrote: > Sun buys MySQL and now Oracle buys Sun (not final, yet).

BTW I am a MySQL developer thank you. A developer does not an owner make.
