Today I read the news that the European Commity approved the Sun acquisition without further demands. See webwereld.nl. Actually it is already a week ago. But today I read also the plans of a Web Open Office, or Open Web Office. Or Open Cloud Office. An alternative of Google's Docs. I'm very curious how that would look like and how it will compare to Google Docs. Open Office is a fairly mature Office Suite. So I'm looking forward to see which OpenOffice features will find their way in to the Oracle Cloud.

Further more the clouds are cleared upon MySql.

Another interesting statement I found was that Java SE should support more languages. Probably as an answer to the .Net world where you can develop in multiple languages. So lots of promisses that makes it interesting to "keep an eye in the sail" with Oracle (famous Dutch saying).
