I think the intro para quoted below is an oversimplification of the license policy--and one that (understandably) favors MySQL AB. My reading of that page is that it's the *distribution* of the MySQL source code (modified or not) or binaries that requires you to have a commercial license. I take

Ms. Castro: In the procedure declaration PROCEDURE CL_CURSOR(p_item in varchar2, P_IC  OUT t_row) the P_IC is referenced as an OUT variable of type t_row. But to use it, it must be declared somewhere else, usually in the calling program. So, a variable definition should exist in the package
