I hope they are able to make good use of it . I also hope MySQL will provide better services to customer and remain free and open source.</span></font></p><img src="http://karthikg.net/blog/aggbug/10.aspx" width="1" height="1" /> Karthik Gopalakrishnan http://karthikg.net/blog/archive/2008/01/16/mysql-becomes-suns-baby.aspx Thu, 17 Jan 2008 06:00:30 GMT http://karthikg.net/blog/comments/10.aspx http://karthikg.net/blog/archive/2008/01/16/mysql-becomes-suns-baby.aspx#feedback http://karthikg.net/blog/comments/commentRss/10.aspx http://karthikg.net/blog/services/trackbacks/10.aspx
