Oracle to buy Sun

[Gabriele Bartolini <gabriele(dot)bartolini(at)2ndQuadrant(dot)it>]

Hi guys,

  what's going to happen now?  
http://www.sun.com/third-party/global/oracle/

  I am still in the process of understanding the impact of this on a 
wider scale. I would love to collect some ideas that can be presented 
during community talks, as "How is Oracle acquisition of Sun going to 
influence PostgreSQL" is a question that often and inevitably will be 
asked - I presume. I would love to get a list of PROS/CONS of this 
agreement as far as PostgreSQL is concerned, both from a technical point 
of view and a marketing point of view, so I believe your ideas are more 
than welcome!

  Thank you.

Ciao,
Gabriele
