MySQL, in trouble?

[el_jentel1]

Monty, the creator of MySQL is asking users to help, apparently Oracle is trying to take over Sun and if that happens it'll have (full) control over MySQL, that could mean the end of an amazing open source system.

I, Michael "Monty" Widenius, the creator of MySQL, is asking you urgently to help save MySQL from Oracle's clutches. Without your immediate help Oracle might get to own MySQL any day now. By writing to the European Commission (EC) you can support this cause and help secure the future development of the product MySQL as an Open Source project...
