Save MySQL and the Internet

So Oracle is buying Sun, and in-turn, is getting MySQL… Something they’ve tried to aquire several times in the past. Monty Widenus, the original founder of MySQL, is pleading for people to sign a petition for Sun to structure the sale agreement in such a way to prevent Oracle from getting becoming the owner of MySQL.

Visit http://www.helpmysql.org/en/petition and sign the petition to help do your part!

Visit Monty’s blog for a thorough Q&A on the matter. Good reading.
