Founder expectations are high regarding what Sun can mean for MySQL. And I’m happy to note that the feeling is mutual — it was my firm impression that the Sun guys we met have high expectations regarding what the MySQL founders can continue to contribute to the future of Sun.

taking this in with some mixed emotion.. MySQL has always been a rock solid product... having it brought into the sun fold could go either way.. i'm choosing to believe it's going to be a good thing for now..
