MySQL FOSS License Exception
14
We want free and open source software applications under certain
15
licenses to be able to use specified GPL-licensed MySQL client
16
libraries despite the fact that not all such FOSS licenses are
17
compatible with version 2 of the GNU General Public License.
18
Therefore there are special exceptions to the terms and conditions
19
of the GPLv2 as applied to these client libraries, which are
20
identified and described in more detail in the FOSS License
22
<http://www.mysql.com/about/legal/licensing/foss-exception.html>.

For the avoidance of doubt, except that if any license choice
33
other than GPL or LGPL is available it will apply instead,
34
Oracle elects to use only the General Public License version 2

(GPLv2) at this time for any software where a choice of GPL
36
license versions is made available with the language indicating
