UCLA Will Resume Streaming Video After Legal Dispute
,----[ Quote ]
| The University of California at Los
| Angeles has restored its streaming video
| service about two months after temporarily
| suspending the service amid complaints
| from an educational-media trade group.
|
| The Association for Information and Media
| Equipment told UCLA in the fall that the
| university had violated copyright laws by
| letting instructors use the videos, some
| of which were full-length productions.
| UCLA decided that beginning this semester
| it would suspend the password-protected
| video-streaming service, available only to
| students in specific classes.

MySQL migration and risk management
,----[ Quote ]
| Oracle's acquisition of Sun has opened up
| all sorts of questions: Will MySQL get the
| support it needs? What will become of the
| MySQL community? Where should database
| administrators put their efforts and
| resources?
|
| Ronald Bradford can answer that last
| question. Bradford, an RDBMS expert and a
| speaker at the upcoming MySQL Conference
| and Expo, has been guiding DBAs through
| key aspects of MySQL integration for
| years. In the following Q&A, he discusses
| the pros and cons of migrating from Oracle
| to MySQL (hint: it's not just about cost
| savings). He also weighs in on the future
| of MySQL and its community.
