See, my immediate reaction was that Oxide is by Sun people who are still scarred by that acquisition; they'll fight tooth and nail to avoid a repeat and if it did get forced through there would be an immediate and complete exodus.
Well, that one too. Honestly, one of the consequences of having a team consisting mostly (but not entirely!) of industry vets: we've collectively seen a lot of shit. In fact, a topic I would never want to bring up among Oxide employees: who has had an acquisition in their career gone the worst? There are just too many contenders, which itself is a sad commentary on the industry!
