I've seen both presentations from Kaj Arn� and J�rg Hoffmeister and was pleased with them. Especially Kaj explained the situation in a more realistic way than some other postings directly after the missinterpreted press release here. He explained the next steps of the development of both databases and that SAP DB will stay with some addaptions (mostly interfaces) to MySQL and MySQL will get more and more funtionality from SAP DB. He made also clear, that MySQL never bought SAP DB and that SAP DB will stay until the new MySQL is such developed that it may be ERP-ready. On a question of the audience about the new licensing model and the problem of PHP here he made also clear that there will be a solution which will be usefull for everyone. Hopefully you will be able to find the presentation at http://www.linuxtag.org/2003/de/conferences/material.html after some time. The presentation seemed not ready when the Linuxtag-DVD was created and should appear there hopefully. J�rg's presentation showed some representative cases of SAP DB usage at customer side. One complex installation of different SAP products on SAP DB and one migration to SAP DB (with some unsuccessfull steps inbetween with other databases) for a own developed application. The final discussion on Kaj's presentation was planned a little bit awkward during the second MySQL presentation (4.1) and there were also some discussions with J�rg also. Therefore I missed it and can't say what was discussed there. Maybe somebody else joined it and can tell a little bit more...
