Has Oracle been a disaster for Sun's open source?
,----[ Quote ]
| The problem is that Oracle is naturally
| trying to optimise its acquisition of Sun
| for its own shareholders, but seems to have
| forgotten that there are other stakeholders
| too: the larger open source communities
| that have formed around the code. That may
| make sense in the short term, but is
| undoubtedly fatal in the long term: free
| software cannot continue to grow and thrive
| without an engaged community.
|
| It would probably be unfair to characterise
| Oracle's running of Sun's open source
| projects as a disaster â at least, for the
| moment; but as the above shows, there are
| plenty of grounds for concern, both in
| terms of how the code is being developed,
| and the happiness or otherwise of
| developers and users. Whether buying Sun
| will prove to be a smart move in the long
| term depends critically on how smartly
| Larry Ellison and his managers can address
| these issues. They also need to start to
| think more seriously about how Oracle can
| contribute to Sun's open source products,
| and not just the other way around.
