I think it is hyperbole more than FUD. Open source people leaving Oracle in droves. After any big merger some people leave, but because some highly visible people have left it seems larger. If it is a mass exodus we'd have no way of knowing. A non-FUD thing to talk about is the specific changes Oracle made to Solaris/OpenSolaris: http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2010/03/solaris-10-no-longer-free-as-in-beer-now-a-90-day-trial.ars Tom -- http://EverythingSysadmin.com -- my blog (new posts Mon and Wed) http://www.TomOnTime.com -- my advice (more videos coming soon) _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
