The GPL requires that source be made available without further restrictions, but only to those to whom the app is distributed. The GPL does not impose any requirement for distribution of the app. It seems to me that MySQL AB tries to game people's misunderstanding of this, in order to lay claim to license fees for in-house projects. -- Scott Ribe scott_ribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.killerbytes.com/ (303) 722-0567 voice
