I disagree with those articles definition of what is legally enforcable as a derivative product. By that kind of definition anything that uses the MS header files is a derivative of Windows, clearly insanity! The MS office stuff is different because it's not GPL or any other kind of open and they don't pretend it is, which say a lot about the MySQL devs to me.

Almost :) You can choose to use a different database, like PostgreSQL, which doesn't have that sort of legal issue. This is my main point, if you use pgsql you don't have to consider such issues where you are distributing free, non-gpl software.
