MySQL is officially part of Sun

On 16 January 2008, less than six weeks ago, Sun announced their definitive agreement to acquire MySQL AB. That "definite agreement" was still subject to government approval in the US, Germany and Austria, and to the signing of the legal transfer documents by MySQL AB's current owners. Those hurdles have now been passed, and the acquisition is thus official. MySQL is part of Sun!
