Ellison: No MySQL spin off

,----[ Quote ]
| Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle, has made it clear that he is 
| not prepared to spin off Sun's MySQL business in an attempt 
| to placate the European Commission investigation of 
| competition issues with Oracle's planned acquisition of 
| Sun. The deal has already been approved by US authorities 
| and Ellison thinks that the European Commission will follow 
| saying "I think once they do their job, they're going to 
| come to the same conclusion".

,----[ Quote ]
| Maybe they should. Once it acquires Sun, Oracle will be the
| largest sponsor of open source projects people use every
| day. Weâre talking Java, weâre talking mySQL, weâre talking
| OpenOffice.org.
