Is There an Open Source Database Ecosystem?

,----[ Quote ]
| Were those code bases run by foundations, as I
| suggested yesterday, this kind of thing would
| be both easier and much more natural. That's
| clearly not going happen, at least in the
| short term, so it will be interesting to see
| how the ODBA goes about nurturing its
| ecosystem. In any case, it's good to see open
| source companies working together, since
| ultimately they are all on the same side.
