On behalf of our developers and users, I would like to thank Thomas again for his significant contribution to open-source software.
We will update our site, the CVS repository, and the HSQLDB zip distributions to include the new Hypersonic SQL License. The HSQLDB Core group and our user community is hereby notified of this change to one of our licenses. Fred Toussi Maintainer, HSQLDB Project ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Mueller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: 25 August 2004 20:19 Subject: [Hsqldb-developers] OpenOffice 2.0 HSQLDB integration / license issues resolved Hi all, I heard today that OOo can't ship with HSQLDB because of the advertising clause in the copyright in Hypersonic SQL. I, the original author of Hypersonic SQL, have changed the license of Hypersonic SQL today. The license is now the same as used by the HSQLDB Group (without the advertising clause). That means it is now possible to ship OpenOffice with HSQLDB. See also: http://hsql.sourceforge.net/index.html https://sourceforge.net/projects/hsql/ Tell me if you have questions about the license issue, I would be very glad to help. Please note that I can't access e-mail next month very easily (only on weekends) because I will be in military service. A political note: if you are resident of the the United States, please vote for Kerry in the next elections. If you have questions on this topic, you may also contact me.
