Marten Mickos resigns from Sun Microsystems
Marten Mickos (Marten Mikos?) , Who served as MySQL AB executive director before Sun bought the company, quits. After taking over MySQL AB, Marten took over as vice president of “database” (senior vice president of Sun Microsystems' database group) .
Despite the fact that the last quarter was one of the best in the history of MySQL (despite the fact that things are not going so well in Sun's parent) , Marten decided to leave the company, tired of bureaucracy.
Surprisingly, Sun has always positioned itself as a company for people, a company in which there are few words and a lot of things. Having spent a long time in counter with Microsoft, Sun accused MS of being monstrous, slow to work because of unnecessary formalities. Strange.
Another MySQL superstar, Michael "Monty" Widenius, is also leaving Sun. Monty complains that version 5.1 was released, despite serious bugs. In addition, he opens his company, where he will develop the engine for MySQL. By the way, several leading developers leave the company together with Monty.
And what is not bad - to sell for a billion dollars, then quit, and with the money, open a new company and continue doing the same. What will Sun do with MySQL if product development leaders leave the company?
Eh, unlucky Sun, specifically unlucky.
