Re: MySQL takeover by Oracle - petition

Isn't it nice to have a descent data layer like we do in cake.
Granted it might be a few days work to switch from MySQL to something
like PostgreSQL for a decent sized project.
But you probably have a few years before we ever get to that point
where we are forced to do so.
Don't sweat the small stuff enjoy the process of change and growth.
I've seen a lot of changes since the 1980's in computer science where
everyone reacted like it was the end of the world. Very few would go
back to work in that environment leaving behind the tools and
technology we have today.

Things change, if they change for the worse thats too bad because
those things occasionally die off.
But I guarantee that those things that don't change and remain
stagnant definitely die.

I really don't think we should have any fear about what the future of
MySQL holds for us. Its new changes that we all have an opportunity to
still contribute to.
