Hummm... Can someone tell me if this is good news or bad news?

Generally a buy-out is mostly bad news, but I can't tell here in this specific case.

MariaDB.com is separate from MariaDB.org that does the development, so it shouldn't be too bad.

Then again, the folks working at MariaDB.com might have a different opinion.

It doesn't look like an "emergency alarm" to switch over to another database. However, I was already thinking of switching every container to postgres. Maybe that's the push needed.
