Will Drizzle rain on Sun's MySql

So Drizzle is going to be a leaner and faster open database then MySQL.

MySQL 6.0 is slow and blotted - thats a great marketing message!

Soon there will be in fighting between the Drizzle and MySQL development teams.

The Drizzle people will leave to form MyDizzle Inc.

My advice use Postgres its a better open source database anyway. Its configurable, fast and puts MySQL to shame.

Sun should have bought Postgres, second thoughts, thank goodness they did not, they have never been good at making money out software.

I am glad I am not a Sun shareholder, $1Bn is going to take some time to get back!
