MySQL FLOSS License Exception

The MySQL AB Exception for Free/Libre and Open Source

Software-only Applications Using MySQL Client Libraries (the

"FLOSS Exception").

Version 0.6, 7 March 2007

Exception Intent

We want specified Free/Libre and Open Source Software (``FLOSS'')

applications to be able to use specified GPL-licensed MySQL client

libraries (the ``Program'') despite the fact that not all FLOSS

licenses are compatible with version 2 of the GNU General Public

License (the ``GPL'').

Legal Terms and Conditions

As a special exception to the terms and conditions of version 2.0

of the GPL:

 1. You are free to distribute a Derivative Work that is formed

    entirely from the Program and one or more works (each, a

    "FLOSS Work") licensed under one or more of the licenses

    listed below in section 1, as long as:

      a. You obey the GPL in all respects for the Program and the

         Derivative Work, except for identifiable sections of the

         Derivative Work which are not derived from the Program,

         and which can reasonably be considered independent and

         separate works in themselves,

      b. all identifiable sections of the Derivative Work which

         are not derived from the Program, and which can

         reasonably be considered independent and separate works

         in themselves,

           i. are distributed subject to one of the FLOSS licenses

              listed below, and

          ii. the object code or executable form of those sections

              are accompanied by the complete corresponding

              machine-readable source code for those sections on

              the same medium and under the same FLOSS license as

              the corresponding object code or executable forms of

              those sections, and

      c. any works which are aggregated with the Program or with a

         Derivative Work on a volume of a storage or distribution

         medium in accordance with the GPL, can reasonably be

         considered independent and separate works in themselves

         which are not derivatives of either the Program, a

         Derivative Work or a FLOSS Work.

    If the above conditions are not met, then the Program may only

    be copied, modified, distributed or used under the terms and

    conditions of the GPL or another valid licensing option from

    MySQL AB.

    Due to the many variants of some of the above licenses, we

    require that any version follow the 2003 version of the Free

    Software Foundation's Free Software Definition

    (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) or version 1.9 of

    the Open Source Definition by the Open Source Initiative

    (http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php).

 3. Definitions

      a. Terms used, but not defined, herein shall have the

         meaning provided in the GPL.

      b. Derivative Work means a derivative work under copyright

         law.

 4. Applicability: This FLOSS Exception applies to all Programs

    that contain a notice placed by MySQL AB saying that the

    Program may be distributed under the terms of this FLOSS

    Exception. If you create or distribute a work which is a

    Derivative Work of both the Program and any other work

    licensed under the GPL, then this FLOSS Exception is not

    available for that work; thus, you must remove the FLOSS

    Exception notice from that work and comply with the GPL in all

    respects, including by retaining all GPL notices. You may

    choose to redistribute a copy of the Program exclusively under

    the terms of the GPL by removing the FLOSS Exception notice

    from that copy of the Program, provided that the copy has

    never been modified by you or any third party.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of libraries and packages

which are covered by the FLOSS License Exception. Please note that

the "FLOSS license list" section remains a prerequisite.
