Hi Everyone, I don't know if it makes a difference to anyone, but mysql client libraries are no longer LGPL. see http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Copyright.html. (original licenses can be found in old source tar files documentation). I think this means, if you have an application that uses mysql as one of your databases don't include the library it unless your app is GPL also (or MySQL gives permission or changes back to LGPL). I guess you could put a link to the web site so users could download the package. Is that inconvienient?
I don't know if this would affect anyone, anyway, but I found it interesting that the licensing quietly changed and I wondered if anyone else cared or if this change cleared up some previous confusion and is a good thing?
