Now that the Oracle acquisition is finally coming to pass, take your cash prize and get the hell out of there. Join us and dance on the grave of proprietary apps!

I need as many sales people and customer support engineers as we can get our hands on.

Apologies for the blatant advertisement. Consider it community service.
