Who copied?

I've been to mysql site 2 mn ago (did'nt occur since at least 6 months)
title says : Mysql: The world most advanced opensource database.

Isn't it the title for postgresql?

It seems weird for both projects to have the same claim (although it's
true for postgreql...)

Regards

I just checked and it states (exactly what it has for years)
"The world's most popular open source database"

OHP,

> title says : Mysql: The world most advanced opensource database.

Just to head this off: no, it doesn't.

It says: MySQL: The world's most popular open source database
^^^^^

That's been their slogan for quite a while. It's not precisely accurate
either, depending on your version of "popular", but it does provide a nice
contrast between us and them.
