Sun + MySQL

I’m extremely stunned that Sun Microsystems acquired MySQL. I’m not sure what’s going to happen to MySQL, but looking at Sun’s track record with Unix, my feelings are somewhat mixed. I’m sure that Sun will do a good job of extending the features, but at the same time, afraid that they may make it too big as they did with Java. Oh, another thing, if they start rolling out with other stupid names like the “beans” or “swing”, I’ll just abandon their stuff.

By the way, I’ve begun working on Postgresql and turns out it’s really good. I plan on using Postgresql rather than MySQL. I know there are issues associated with using Rails, but I’m sure there are solutions as well. I’ll post them here as my personal note.
