- back from #inno and pdxpug. two innotech recruits for pug meeting! wave to @mherrick66! #
- really enjoyed meeting @xolotl today! yay for tweeps. #
- and nice to meet @storming! #
- @theory’s presentation tonight was amazing. stomach hurts from laughing so much. #
- @markwkm is making a performance lab. @gorthx fixed up the t2000 with her serial-fu. #
- @sarahgilbert those are pretty 🙂 #
- @linuxpoet gave an interesting talk at mysqlcon about community. hoping i can get the audio to listen. http://snurl.com/24uuk #
- @debbryant – here’s some chicken photos 🙂 http://snurl.com/24vt5 #
- @notbenh talk went awesome! #
- browsing the slashdot thread on mysql close sourcing enterprise features http://snurl.com/24w7x #
- hah – "Sun wants to treat MySQL like a product. They want to give away the "free" version as a stripped down marketing tool." #
- @mattking postgres could not have bought better marketing 🙂 let me know if you need any help! #
- @mattking also, the rest of that post talked about how sun is just shooting themselves in the foot by taking away a HUGE testing resource #
- @thesethings you’re right, the change is symbolic. but it’s the kind of change that causes people to ask questions and consider alternatives #
- mysql "close sourcing" — a more balanced article from 451group: http://snurl.com/24wf2 #
- "MySQL has right now is a public relations problem (or a community relations problem)." — i agree with this #
- i don’t think mysql (or sun for that matter) are evil for making this change (offering new backup features only for the enterprise version) #
- like @thesethings said, they made the decision to have dual licenses a long time ago. from a community/OSS development model perspective… #
- …the announcement is confirming fears that mysql is not committed to having a real open source community around their product! we’ll see.. #
- wow – matt asay saying that mysql should experiment with affero licensing for "freeloaders like google and digg" 😀 http://snurl.com/24whm #
- happy birthday @Techpaulogy! beer’s on me monday! #
- @thesethings sorry. i’ll stop. i just couldn’t believe it! #
- @jfroebe it shouldn’t stop the community – however, who is that? does mysql have any non-mysql employees as committers? #
- just got plane tickets for PGCon! http://www.pgcon.org/2008/ #
