Maybe this will get more people interested in the idea that the oracle
purchase of innobase could be a bad thing for postgresql. If oracle uses
my$ql as a cheap promotional tool, they can probably keep a strong hold
on the entry level space and also provide a direct migration path into
the high-end markets. This helps cut postgresql (as well as ibm and m$)
out of the loop even further, something oracle would be more than happy
to do.
