I know that's what MySQL claims, but (a) I can't see any plausible
interpretation of the GPL which makes that enforcable; and (b)
assuming someone really did fork, I can't see how MySQL's reading of
the GPL would be relevant (since you'd no longer be using MySQL, but
YourSQL or whatever it was called).
