The MySQL acquisition is quickly changing the perception of Sun's commitment to Open Source. Earlier today I pointed to new efforts in the Health and the Education industries, here are two more stories: |
• The University of Tokyo and Sun start
Research on HPC and Web-based Languages
• Sun and Chinese Government announce
OpenSPARC Collaboration.
Assessing all this, LinuxInsider says: Deals Cast Sun in Role of Open Source Standard Bearer.
I'm not surprised the deal is changing people's perceptions; but I am a bit surprised at how fast and how deeply it changes them. This is going to a be a very interesting year for us.
