True. However I dont see Opera's troubles caused by Oracle integration:
support costs, etc but rather a more simplistic view: not enough interest.
If they were interested enough they would have selected OSOL and start
building on that.
As well in past: Opera was not showing enough interest in Solaris
, so main question would be how to keep them interested in our project
and how to grow such things and engage with other communities.
Thats the hard part.
desktop volume drives desktop application vendor interest if not being
helped by the lower volume platform's time/money.
pretty simple business decision.
as much as we would like to think otherwise, we are, in their minds, a
niche player.
