MySQL Licensing

11 Feb 2004

It's been a week since he wrote this (I've been busy with PHPCommunity.org), but Theo has written a nice testimonial about the problems developers are facing with MySQL's licensing.

Zak has been hosting an open license review recently. Hopefully good things will happen as a result. I encourage everyone to voice any concerns you have; MySQL AB seems very willing to listen and to try to resolve and/or clarify any legitimate concerns.
