|
What is the FOSS License Exception?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Oracle's Free and Open Source Software ("FOSS") License Exception
|
||
|
(formerly known as the FLOSS License Exception) allows developers of FOSS
|
||
|
applications to include Oracle's MySQL Client Libraries (also referred to
|
||
|
as "MySQL Drivers" or "MySQL Connectors") with their FOSS applications.
|
||
|
MySQL Client Libraries are typically licensed pursuant to version 2 of the
|
||
|
General Public License ("GPL"), but this exception permits distribution of
|
||
|
certain MySQL Client Libraries with a developer's FOSS applications
|
||
|
licensed under the terms of another FOSS license listed below, even though
|
||
|
such other FOSS license may be incompatible with the GPL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following terms and conditions describe the circumstances under which
|
||
|
Oracle's FOSS License Exception applies.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Oracle's FOSS License Exception Terms and Conditions
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Definitions. "Derivative Work" means a derivative work, as defined
|
||
|
under applicable copyright law, formed entirely from the Program and
|
||
|
one or more FOSS Applications.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"FOSS Application" means a free and open source software application
|
||
|
distributed subject to a license listed in the section below titled
|
||
|
"FOSS License List."
|
||
|
|
||
|
"FOSS Notice" means a notice placed by Oracle or MySQL in a copy of
|
||
|
the MySQL Client Libraries stating that such copy of the MySQL Client
|
||
|
Libraries may be distributed under Oracle's or MySQL's FOSS (or FLOSS)
|
||
|
License Exception.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Independent Work" means portions of the Derivative Work that are not
|
||
|
derived from the Program and can reasonably be considered independent
|
||
|
and separate works.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Program" means a copy of Oracle's MySQL Client Libraries that
|
||
|
contains a FOSS Notice.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. A FOSS application developer ("you" or "your") may distribute a
|
||
|
Derivative Work provided that you and the Derivative Work meet all of
|
||
|
the following conditions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
a. You obey the GPL in all respects for the Program and all portions
|
||
|
(including modifications) of the Program included in the
|
||
|
Derivative Work (provided that this condition does not apply to
|
||
|
Independent Works);
|
||
|
b. The Derivative Work does not include any work licensed under the
|
||
|
GPL other than the Program;
|
||
|
c. You distribute Independent Works subject to a license listed in
|
||
|
the section below titled "FOSS License List";
|
||
|
d. You distribute Independent Works in object code or executable
|
||
|
form with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code
|
||
|
on the same medium and under the same FOSS license applying to
|
||
|
the object code or executable forms;
|
||
|
e. All works that are aggregated with the Program or the Derivative
|
||
|
Work on a medium or volume of storage are not derivative works of
|
||
|
the Program, Derivative Work or FOSS Application, and must
|
||
|
reasonably be considered independent and separate works.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Oracle reserves all rights not expressly granted in these terms and
|
||
|
conditions. If all of the above conditions are not met, then this FOSS
|
||
|
License Exception does not apply to you or your Derivative Work.
