Founder pride issue. Started another MySQL once out of Oracle. He should have focus on improving MySQL+PostGreSQL+whatever NoSQL out there. Instead, he wasted resources to build another instance of MySQL. But to his credit though, his action forced Oracle to behave well with MySQL and not decimate it like OpenOffice, once upon a time.

This is mariadb.com the enterprise branch. Nothing to do with the open source foundation at mariadb.org, which is unaffected by this.

"Unaffected" isn't clear yet. The vast majority of MariaDB server commits come from employees of MariaDB Plc, the commercial entity described by the article. See https://mariadb.org/mariadb-contribution-statistics-june-202...
