The MySQL program itself is worthless to sun - Sun could easily fork the source and make a version with proprietary addons. Sun is buying the existing business as a going concern, which makes sense considering that MySQL is doing quite well (as a business) and lots of Sun's operations currently aren't. I simply hope that Sun doesn't suck all the talent out of MySQL into it's other blighted operations.
