It occurs to me (after a spell of burying my head in some sand) that Oracle has bought Sun Microsystems (who in turn had bought MySQL). I have several issues in my head that are struggling to find words: 1) that Jonathan Schwatz, my favorite CEO blogger, is moving on (this is just that sentimental clinging - "don't go!") but more importantly 2) this buy-out may signify the end of Open Source as we know it.What is Kenya's position on the matter? I imagine that this has been discussed in the technology policy circles?
