will have to get a legal expert to answer that question. The EULA basically states only that i can only use the downloadable copy to test my application and not use it in any production environement not even non commercial. the EULA states : ---------------------------- You may not: �use the programs for your own internal data processing or for any commercial or production purposes, or use the programs for any purpose except the development and prototyping of your applications;�use the applications you develop with the programs for any internal data processing or commercial or production purposes without securing an appropriate license from us;�remove or modify any program markings or any notice of our proprietary rights;�make the programs available in any manner to any third party; �use the programs to provide third party training; �assign this agreement or give or transfer the programs or an interest in them to another individual or entity;�cause or permit reverse engineering or decompilation of the programs; �disclose results of any program benchmark tests without our prior consent; or,�use any Oracle name, trademark or logo. ------------------------ now according to me if i download the program and make it available to you in a CD or anything that should be a violation of the agreement. I don't know much about law anyways ...And ... i just checked .. the personal edition of oracle is not even available for linux .. only the enterprise edition is ... and that must be a time bound .. or crippled version.
