> MariaDB is forked at the last moment.

What is this about?




It should read "MariaDB forked from Oracle MySQL at the last moment".

(And I think Oracle MySQL is still alive/supported)


You are right, sorry, non-native English speaker here. While most of the time I get it right sometimes I don't. That's what I wanted to say.

Supported yes. Having history of Oracle handling of projects, Solaris being last example, I am very glad that we have active MariaDB.


Yeah, so why the "last moment"? That's why I was confused.


About Oracle owning MySQL?
