Yes!

You, or better someone who knows SAP DB could tell if it's "probably the most 
complete free database system available right now, with much more features 
than interbase, mysql or postgresql" as this guy Hemos says on Slashdot.

I remember the same being said about Interbase when it was OSS'ed, but I 
still stick to PostgreSQL.

But knowledge doesn't hurt, and as someone pointed out, you can't tell the 
quality of the software from the names of your source code.
But it sure makes it a lot more difficult to understand what's going on, I'll 
grant you that :-)
