That's nice to hear. But I respect licences as they are and the ODBCng driver
is licenced under the GPL.

So is this an _official_ statement from CommandPrompt that the driver can be
used in commercial applications? If so then either this should be stated on
the drivers' page (or the licence should be changed to LGPL).
