*rofl* now that wasn't rigged or nothing ... I could see us second to
MySQL, or third to Oracle/Informix, depending on how it was evaluated, but
fourth to all three?

    Hey, look at the headline:

        Linux Magazine's Editor's Choice Awards
        by The Editors of Linux Magazine

        The Linux market is exploding with all kinds of
        great new (and old) products. We decided it was
        time to round up our editors and pick our
        favorites. Here are the results.

        (From www.linux-mag.com)

    Does  that sound like any comparision was done? Not to me. To
    me it sounds more that The Editors  of  Linux  Magazine  just
    told what tools they prefer for themself.

True ... seems kind of a stupid way to award something though ... like,
based on what merits? *shrug* (<- rhetorical question there, eh? *grin*)

To me, the most incredible thing is that they put Oracle
after MySQL! the choice they did is tough to us, but it
must have brought hell to Oracle evangelists lives!
