I noticed that after the termination of the agreement between SAP and MySQL, the source code for MaxDB seems unavailable. Is MaxDB now closed source/proprietary?

to my best knowledge SAP took over (again) the development of MAX DB

I hope there would be some way to get a definitive answer to this question. Perhaps someone from SAP will have a chance to respond.

"In October 2007, SAP assumed full sales and support for MaxDB. MaxDB 7.6 is now closed source, and available free of charge for non-SAP applications. There is no commercial support available"

Thank you for pointing out this information.

I think this is a very sad development, and I hope SAP might

choose to explain itself regarding this.
