Re: mysql.org

[Michael Collins]

It seems to me that the bottom line is that any outcome that results 
in there being a fork in the development of MySQL (with the result 
being two completely different types of MySQL), or in NuSphere 
retaining control of the mysql.org domain should be vehemently 
rejected by the MySQL community. No matter what agreement may or may 
not have been created, since MySQL AB has made it clear that this is 
not what they want or intended. So to me it is obvious that any 
agreement that may have been made is either being misinterpreted by 
NuSphere or was not entered in good faith.

NuSphere, if what you want is an improved MySQL and if you have 
anything to contribute to the betterment of MySQL, hand over the 
code. If you want a "non-profit" Web site first turn over MySQL.org 
to MySQL AB and either register NuSphere.org for your non-profit site 
or help MySQL AB to get it started. If you want to make money on 
MySQL, follow the guidelines of GPL to the letter and to the approval 
of MySQL or pay the per-copy license.

I guess the solution seems so simple for an outsider.
