Hi, I noticed that many wrappers over libmysqlclient are distributed under BSD 3c (or alike): * dolphin-connector: BSD 3c * soci-mysql: Boost * poco-mysql: Boost Though, the FOSS exception[1] applies, it may mislead users into thinking that they can link proprietary softwares to these wrappers though the FOSS exception states that all derivatives works should be licensed under one of the approved licenses. Should we request that the following packages changes their license field into GPLv2 ? or at least state somewhere (description, README.fedora ?) that any derivatives works are to be licensed under a FOSS approved license ? best regards, H.
