Appendix I MySQL FLOSS License Exception
****************************************

Version 0.3, 10 February 2005

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

*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,

             *       i

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

             *       ii

               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
     (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
     (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.
