Wow, that is super-confusing. I am dealing with an issue now that some companies are concerned that individual names appear with our own BSD copyrights in small files. That pales in comparison to this copyright. I would never be able to recommend software with that complex a copyright. I think the community needs to look at other alternatives. (I am amazed that not only are there a confusing number of drivers, but there are a confusing number of copyright options for this single driver.) -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
