Linux MySQL distros meeting in Brussels

,----[ Quote ]
| When I saw Shlomi's post on why not to use 
| apt-get or yum for MySQL, I thought 
| immediately that his conclusions are quite 
| reasonable. What you get from the Linux 
| distributions is not the same thing that 
| you find in the official MySQL downloads 
| page. Now, whether you value more the 
| completeness of the server or the ease of 
| administration through the distribution 
| installation tools, it's up to you and your 
| business goals. We at the MySQL team have 
| organized a meeting with the Linux 
| distributions with the intent of finding 
| out which differences and problems we may 
| have with each other, and to solve them by 
| improving communication. What follows is a 
| summary of what happened in Brussels during 
| the meeting.

What happens to Sun's open-source software now?

,----[ Quote ]
| The deal is done. Oracle now owns Sun. 
| Oracle's main message to Sun's customers 
| seems to be "Don't worry, be happy." That's 
| not easy when Oracle is not explaining in 
| any detail what it will be doing with open-
| source software offerings like MySQL, 
| OpenOffice and OpenSolaris.
