My former CEO answers questions on Slashdot
It was my pleasure to work with MÃ¥rten Mickos, CEO of MySQL for about a year during 2005 and 2006. I was astounded by how involved he is with the employees and how well he keeps abreast of the goings-on in the company. He seems to be of the rare set who are not only…
