Sounds good. Too good?
This sounds like a great solution to a problem that is probably costing Oracle, destroying what little credibility Sun has as a brand, while ensuring that every website on the planet (virtually) retains access to a free, secure and efficient database.

If we don't do something, the web development community is going to waste a lot of talent and brain cycles rewriting code to work with various forks of random databases, rather than on innovation. Which do we want? Reworking infrastructure *again*, or the next big Twitter, Facebook or whatever?
