Hello Sinisa,

MySQL is great and we are trying our clients to use it, for our dynamic web apps (We are an ISP). We already use it on UNIX systems, and we start using it on WinNT systems too, for enabling 'WinNT only' societies.

After the recent numerous mail exchanges on your List, about win32 Mysql License, and to make it completely clear, Can you confirm me that :

o Running a web server in conjunction with MySQLd on WinNT, using 3.23.xx win32 Mysql version, which is now GPLd, doesn' need a license for the ISP. YES ? NO ?

YES

Of course, we well understand that purchasing MySQL support is recommended, to support MySQL development effort...

And go get a best support for your database server.

o If a dynamic web application is built up (commercial) for one of the ISP's client, and if this client installs the whole stuff on his own network and hosts( web server, Mysqld server), the same directives apply : No license, but MySQL support recommended.... YES ? NO?

YES.

I beg your pardon for being so dumb !!...;) But as we really need to be sure of it...

Thanks in advance, and thanks once again for this beautiful Mysql engine.

Jean Tiberghien

Regards,

Sinisa
