'The No. 1 Reason to Move to Open Source is
to IMPROVE Security"
http://blogs.sun.com...he_no_1_reason_to COO of Sun Federal (??) makes the case, One More Time. And with some interesting Risk graphs , for those uncomfortable with more than one paragraph of words.

I see a comparison of MySQL to Oracle...
That must be a poke in the eye to Oracle. :-)
I wonder what the community could do to an open-sourced Oracle. :-O Wade. "Ah -- I take it the doorbell doesn't work?" |

Fix it...
The problem with Oracle is that they have *SO MANY* Production "bugs^H^H^H^Hfeatures"... and so many products relying on the specific bugs for either performance, shortcuts or legacy support that it'd be impossible to flatten out and refactor Oracle to any really truly usable Open Source product.
I'm thinking Oracle might do it if it were to see benefits from people chompin at the bit to make things happen with a "Community" Version of Oracle. |
