I would prefer having supplier A build a great product that seamlessly  
interfaces with supplier B's great product, rather than having supplier M$  
buy A, develop a half-working brain-dead version of B into A and market it  
as the new hot stuff, sinking B in the process. Anyway, orthogonal feature  
sets (like database and pooler) implemented in separate applications fit  
the open source development model quite well I think. Merge everything in,  
you get PHP.
