Well, the obvious place to look is the MySQL web site, http://www.mysql.com
Click "Products", then click "MySQL Licensing Policy".

First of all, I must ask you why you've posted this under a
thread about forking off MySQL. This makes little sense to me.
Secondly, since you just posted the same ques
I get the error 'Host 'emdtest.ncr.com' is not allowd to connect to this

How do I correct this???

I will end my involvement in this thread, because I sense there is too much
noise coming.
If any one with good experience in the MySQL source code base would like to
do some well paid, contracting work for me, please do not hesistate to
email me privately.
Thank you for your consideration of my

3.23 will not the most current cvs soon I assume.

Hmm, this has certainly been an interesting discussion. I personally
think that forking the code accomplishes nothing at all. What's so tough
about making a patch to 3.23 and sending it to the MySQL developers? I
also doubt that anyone working on the new fork will be able to convince
thousands
Steve I take your input very constructively and I personally will
definitely reconsider and contemplate more on your point.
In fact, I already emailed the developers yesterday, and asked if I could
pay to have the particular feature I wanted prioritized at this time. And
I don't think that was

Just so you know I am not blowing wind on possible speed enchancement,
please let me add that one of my former talents was assembler code. Not to
blow my own horn, but simply to state as fact relevant here, I was able to

Well I would try to leave that up to the people who want to be involved.
But I would say that a good place to start might be here:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/T/O/TODO_future.html
Speeding up the backlog of little things as priority over the major
structural changes, which IMHO are away from MySQL
What specific issues are you focusing on?

More points about proposed wsSQL:
1. Another point is that any changes in a separate fork can always be
integrated back into the main fork. Nothing is stopping that. I am just
proposing some advantages as to why it shouldn't be the minor fork's
responsibility to do that.
2. I would not decide

IMHO I think this would be best too, I know I would like both the
newer/forthcoming features in the 4.x branch, but

So far, one developer of MySQL has emailed me and said he would help.
I propose we wait to see how many developers are interested, then take a
vote how to structure. If we don't get enough interested developers, then
I guess that means the proposal dies.
I am not interested in being in control.

I have not read the MySQL license in detail.
Does it allow someone or a group to start another fork of the source that
is independent from the current developers?
If yes, is any one else interested in starting a fork in which the primary
goal would be to improve the smaller todos and performance
