We are using Linux and having fun.
We are programming using gcc as a compiler.
We test mysql and postgresql in our laboratories.
We create our websites with apache, php and mysql...
Due to this we will suggest these kind of products when we will be asked for advices.
I'm not against oracle. It is a very reliable product... and I'm not asking it for free...
But let us see the source code (even the old one) and study it!
This would help oracle and the community in the long run...
