Appendix K MySQL FLOSS License Exception
****************************************

The MySQL AB Exception for Free/Libre and Open Source Software-only
Applications Using MySQL Client Libraries (the `FLOSS Exception').

_Version 0.5, 30 August 2006_

*Exception Intent*

We want specified Free/Libre and Open Source Software ("FLOSS")
applications to be able to use specified GPL-licensed MySQL client
libraries (the "Program") despite the fact that not all FLOSS licenses
are compatible with version 2 of the GNU General Public License (the
"GPL").

*Legal Terms and Conditions*

As a special exception to the terms and conditions of version 2.0 of
the GPL:

  1. You are free to distribute a Derivative Work that is formed
     entirely from the Program and one or more works (each, a `FLOSS
     Work') licensed under one or more of the licenses listed below in
     section 1, as long as:

       1. You obey the GPL in all respects for the Program and the
          Derivative Work, except for identifiable sections of the
          Derivative Work which are not derived from the Program, and
          which can reasonably be considered independent and separate
          works in themselves,

       2. all identifiable sections of the Derivative Work which are
          not derived from the Program, and which can reasonably be
          considered independent and separate works in themselves,

            1. are distributed subject to one of the FLOSS licenses
               listed below, and

            2. the object code or executable form of those sections are
               accompanied by the complete corresponding
               machine-readable source code for those sections on the
               same medium and under the same FLOSS license as the
               corresponding object code or executable forms of those
               sections, and

       3. any works which are aggregated with the Program or with a
          Derivative Work on a volume of a storage or distribution
          medium in accordance with the GPL, can reasonably be
          considered independent and separate works in themselves which
          are not derivatives of either the Program, a Derivative Work
          or a FLOSS Work.

     If the above conditions are not met, then the Program may only be
     copied, modified, distributed or used under the terms and
     conditions of the GPL or another valid licensing option from MySQL
     AB.

     Due to the many variants of some of the above licenses, we require
     that any version follow the 2003 version of the Free Software
     Foundation's Free Software Definition
     (`http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html') or version 1.9 of
     the Open Source Definition by the Open Source Initiative
     (`http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php').

  3. Definitions

       1. Terms used, but not defined, herein shall have the meaning
          provided in the GPL.

       2. Derivative Work means a derivative work under copyright law.

  4. *Applicability*: This FLOSS Exception applies to all Programs that
     contain a notice placed by MySQL AB saying that the Program may be
     distributed under the terms of this FLOSS Exception. If you create
     or distribute a work which is a Derivative Work of both the
     Program and any other work licensed under the GPL, then this FLOSS
     Exception is not available for that work; thus, you must remove
     the FLOSS Exception notice from that work and comply with the GPL
     in all respects, including by retaining all GPL notices. You may
     choose to redistribute a copy of the Program exclusively under the
     terms of the GPL by removing the FLOSS Exception notice from that
     copy of the Program, provided that the copy has never been
     modified by you or any third party.
