What if Oracle is planning to slowly slowly kill off/degrade MySQL?
By with-holding the test cases / not putting in effort into new features/development.
If opensource contributors cant test properly - they would create a buggy, unstable/inferior product in the future.
According to what I know - Oracle is in the database business, MySQL is "competing" database of sorts...
Why would oracle want to keep it around? Its not in their interest, right?
