Remember, Oracle also forced 'Redhat' customers (who rely on Oracle DB) to their Linux in similar manner. Now I wonder BTRFS is not getting enough attention, because its started by Oracle and their history with open-source?

The main btrfs devs who were at Oracle have been at Facebook for a while, so you can't blame Oracle for btrfs not moving along haha

Not an expert in Oracle DB licensing. Could you explain?

  I'm not expert in licensing too. I've friends who said, when they needed enterprise support for Oracle DB running on Redhat, directly/indirectly the message they received is to migrate from Redhat linux to Oracle linux. I think that quite clear by some kind of 'cold-war' going on between Redhat & Oracle. http://fossforce.com/2016/03/microsoft-oracle-oracle-tried-red-hat/ http://fossforce.com/2016/03/microsoft-oracle-oracle-tried-r...

    The very fact that you must be an "expert" in licensing really says everything you need to know about Oracle licenses.
