[fdo-internals] MySQL libraries...

[Greg Boone]

No we are not distributing MySQL libraries.


Here are the instructions from the FDO OpenSource build README:

---

In order to build the MySQL Provider, you will need to download and
install the MySQL 5.0 Windows client and developer components from:

        http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html

Following the installation set the following FDO Windows environment
variable:

        set FDOMYSQL=[MySQL developer components path] 

        e.g. set FDOMYSQL=c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0

Hi,

Are we distributing the MySQL libraries with the FDO builds?

If not, I'm wondering if we could under the terms of the FLOSS
exception:

http://www.mysql.com/company/legal/licensing/foss-exception.html

It's a bit confusing for me... My initial impression is that it the
MySQL Provider might have to be GPL, but that all other portions of FDO
could stay LGPL?

Jason
