And MySQL AB apparently has 50 employees spread around the world.  

http://www.mysql.com/company/management.html says

    David Axmark
    Co-founder

    David Axmark is one of the founders of MySQL and worked with the
    product well before it had a name. He has worked as a consultant and
    software developer for nearly 20 years. Interested in free software
    since the early 80s, David has been committed to developing a
    successful business model through open source software. 

If he's particularly interested in a "successful business model" might
it be worth someone inviting him to join the list in the hope he has
time to contribute?

Cheers,


Ralph.
