We at Identigral are a bit obsessed with Edward Lear so we couldn't help ourselves. Instead of writing another few pages worth of text on Sun/Oracle future, we thought it would be easier to summarize the last few days in two limericks:

There was a company whose name was Sun
That took Java out for a run
With NetBeans spilled
And MySQL forked
Larry the Yachtsman got the wine uncorked

There is a company in Redwood Shores
Whose appetite grew in fours
A fork in the left
A spoon in the right
And the Valley became one big bite
