worried by the aquisition at all.  That includes many discussions with
employees of MySQL.  Even with Open Solaris finally released, I don't think
there are any issues that will occur with Sun appropriating
the technology for themselves.  It wasn't even a thing where they were
putting up a brave front to settle everyone's worries.  Really it was
almost a non-issue. Yeah, sure they talked about it but not in a
"don't be worried" kind of way.
