It looks like it going to happen Oracle has been all clear to buy Sun
Microsystems. Just now waiting on EU and will happen.

Is this a good thing?

In my mind NO. This is a very bad thing and isn't good thing for Java,
OpenOffice.org and MySQL. The majority of work on these projects are
done by Sun and from my view it isn't to the advantage of Oracle to
support the projects in the long run.
