I think it's a bit cheeky claiming recognition for Sleepycat, seeing as how if the awards had been a couple of months earlier it wouldn't have been an Oracle employee picking up the silverware.

But the award for XE is well-deserved.

Cheers, APC

Congratualtions for winning this very prestiegious award i knew all along you were the best and now someone else has recognized it as well and I am sure it will not be the last.

We are all judged by the choices we make - perhaps Oracle does not deserve credit for Berkeley DB itself (yet), but certainly it does for being smart enough to acknowledge its value in the Oracle stack (money talks)....
