This is what Lubet, former Oracle sales mistress, has
to say about that: "I'm pretty sure, as an ex-Oracle
employee, that the sentence in the release about
'We'll certainly be happy to renew the contract,' that
it was written by Larry and that he was laughing out
loud as he [dictated it]."
Maybe they lost the development of the know how for the only
transaction safe table type of the current mysql releases, but they
still "own" the former Adabas/MaxDB/SAP-DB code with transaction safe
tables. Probably they force the "union" of mysql and SAP-DB code base
to keep their transaction competence, but this are just my €0,02...
They do not "own" MaxDB. They license it, just like Innodb.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
