I read the comments on NuSphere in the portals section:
"As long as GEMINI is not released under open source, as required by the
GPL license of the MySQL server, we at MySQL AB can't recommend anyone to
use this distribution."
and I'm left thinking they are in violation of the GPL. If this is the
case, I'm sort of suprised that a bigger noise hasn't been made about this.
Anyone know any different?
Monty, I did try to add this as a comment to the portals area (as
suggested) but the link below told me I didn't have the rights to do so.
Just thought I'd let you know.
cheers,
noel
