I will not say that below 100% true, but I believe I have read that on
different lists and mySQL license site
* free for not profit? Okay.
but do you know that on their site was said:
if developer have developed app for use in company (!)
of that developer -- license must be paid.
* mySQL server is free for ISP itself.
but if ISP now give access to his clients,
clients should pay commercial license.
May be something was changed after Oracle get mySQL,
I did not check last year.
