As a follow-up to a thread from a couple of days ago, I just got
off the
phone with mySQL sales.
If you are using the REALSoftware supplied mySQL plug-in for an
application
you distribute then you must do one of the following:
1. Release your source code under the GPL
If you do not want to release your source code then you have to
either:
2. Buy a mySQL server license for every instance you distribute your
program, in one of two flavors (it matters not if your customer
already has
a mySQL server license):
A. $295 license if the mySQL server uses the old myISAM format
B. $695 license if the mySQL server uses the InnoDB format (Pro
license)
3. Join the mySQL partner program for $2,000/yr
4. Stop using the plug-in
This is the ugliest licensing plan I've seen since years - especially
the
term "it matters not if your customer..." :-(
