I would prefer having supplier A build a great product that seamlessly
interfaces with supplier B's great product, rather than having supplier M$
buy A, develop a half-working brain-dead version of B into A and market it
as the new hot stuff, sinking B in the process. Anyway, orthogonal feature
sets (like database and pooler) implemented in separate applications fit
the open source development model quite well I think. Merge everything in,
you get PHP.
