Maybe they lost the development of the know how for the only transaction

transaction competence, but this are just my €0,02...
First, InnoDB is not the only transaction safe table type in MySQL.
Although a poor stepchild today, there is still BDB.
Second, MySQL AB does not own the MaxDB code. I never fully understood
what that contract was about, maybe someone from MySQL AB can explain
that, but to my knowledge SAP AG did not transfer the copyright.
They could also go back to NuSphere, aka Multera, aka PeerDirect and ask
what happened to the Progress storage engine Rocket.
