== MySQL ==
The Debian package of MySQL was first debianzed on 1997-04-12 by Christian
Schwarz <schwarz@debian.org> and ist maintained since 1999-04-20 by
Christian Hammers <ch@debian.org>.
It can be downloaded from http://www.mysql.com/
Copyright:
According to the file "COPYING" all parts of this package are licenced
under the terms of the GNU GPL Version 2 of which a copy is available
in /usr/share/common-licenses.
To allow free software with other licences than the GPL to link against the
shared library, special terms for "derived works" are defined in the file
"EXCEPTIONS-CLIENT" which is quoted below.
More information can be found on http://www.mysql.com/company/legal/licensing/
The manual had to be removed as it is not free in the sense of the
Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG).

> Work") licensed under one or more of the licenses listed below in
> section 1, as long as:
>
> a. 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,
>
> b. all identifiable sections of the Derivative Work which are not
> derived from the Program, and which can reasonably be

>
> i
> are distributed subject to one of the FLOSS licenses

> ii
> the object code or executable form of those sections are
> accompanied by the complete corresponding

> corresponding object code or executable forms of those
> sections, and
>
> c. any works which are aggregated with the Program or with a
> Derivative Work on a volume of a storage or distribution

> considered independent and separate works in themselves which
> are not derivatives of either the Program, a Derivative Work
> or a FLOSS Work.
