Oracle Buys Sun. Tom asked What this will mean for MySQL?. I can make a wager this is going to happen:
MySQL will be laid to rest (R.I.P.)
Oracle will continue (harder?) promoting Oracle Express as the leading free-of-charge database solution for Web shops and similar.
PostgreSQL stays where it is on position of the best Open Source Database Management System in the World.
Anybody is going to predict what will happen to Java?
