Hi,
 
Are the default MariaDB configuration files licensed under GPL, or is there a 
more permissive license for it?
 
The context of my question...
 
I am a committer on the apache Brooklyn project [1]. This automates the 
deployment and runtime management of applications to a range of different 
clouds. MariaDB can be one of a range of components being deployed and wired 
together.
 
We have copied the my.cnf configuration file, and templated it so that 
automated deployment of custom configurations are simpler. However, Apache does 
not allow inclusion of GPL/LGPL material [2]. We may have to write our own 
version of the configuration file from scratch, or delete our templated version 
and resort to `sed` commands to modify the default (yuck!).
