Hello all:
Just to let you all know, Sun is in trouble. Linux is
taking alot of business away from Sun. Can we trust Sun to do the
right thing. Also, if Sun adds any code to PG, will it continue to be
opensource product. As you can tell, I don't trust these big IT
companies, but they are a necessary evil. How can we protect
ourselves from Sun if they plan to shaft us.
