                        MYSQL FREE PUBLIC LICENSE
                        (Version 4, March 5, 1995)
            Copyright (C) 1995, 1996 TcX AB & Monty Program KB & Detron HB
                 Stockholm SWEDEN, Helsingfors FINLAND and Uppsala SWEDEN,
                         All rights reserved.
         NOTE: This license is not the same as any of the GNU Licenses
         published by the Free Software Foundation.  Its terms are
         substantially different from those of the GNU Licenses.
         If you are familiar with the GNU Licenses, please read this
         license with extra care.
 This License applies to the computer program known as "mysql".  The
 "Program", below, refers to such program, and a "work based on the
 Program" means either the Program or any derivative work of the Program,
 as defined in the United States Copyright Act of 1976, such as a
 translation or a modification.  The Program is a copyrighted work whose
 copyright is held by TcX Datakonsult AB and Monty Program KB and Detron HB.
 BY MODIFYING OR DISTRIBUTING THE PROGRAM (OR ANY WORK BASED ON THE
 PROGRAM), YOU INDICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS LICENSE TO DO SO, AND ALL
 ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTING OR MODIFYING THE
 PROGRAM OR WORKS BASED ON IT.  NOTHING OTHER THAN THIS LICENSE GRANTS YOU
 PERMISSION TO MODIFY OR DISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM OR ITS DERIVATIVE WORKS.
 THESE ACTIONS ARE PROHIBITED BY LAW.  IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS
 AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT MODIFY OR DISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM.
 1.  Licenses.
 Licensor hereby grants you the following rights, provided that you comply
 with all of the restrictions set forth in this License and provided,
 further, that you distribute an unmodified copy of this License with the
 Program:
 (a) You may copy and distribute literal (i.e., verbatim) copies of the
 Program's source code as you receive it throughout the world, in any
 medium.
 (b) You may modify the Program, create works based on the Program and
 distribute copies of such throughout the world, in any medium.
 2.  Restrictions.
 This license is subject to the following restrictions:
 (a) Distribution of the Program or any work based on the Program by a
 commercial organization to any third party is prohibited if any payment is
 made in connection with such distribution, whether directly (as in payment
 for a copy of the Program) or indirectly (as in payment for some service
 related to the Program, or payment for some product or service that
 includes a copy of the Program "without charge"; these are only examples,
 and not an exhaustive enumeration of prohibited activities).  However, the
 following methods of distribution involving payment shall not in and of
 themselves be a violation of this restriction:
         (i) Posting the Program on a public access information storage
 and retrieval service for which a fee is received for retrieving
 information (such as an on-line service), provided that the fee is not
 content-dependent (i.e., the fee would be the same for retrieving the
 same volume of information consisting of random data).
         (ii) Distributing the Program on a CD-ROM, provided that the
 files containing the Program are reproduced entirely and verbatim on such
 CD-ROM, and provided further that all information on such CD-ROM be
 redistributed for non-commercial purposes without charge.
 (b) Activities other than copying, distribution and modification of the
 Program are not subject to this License and they are outside its scope.
 Functional use (running) of the Program is not restricted, and any output
 produced through the use of the Program is subject to this license only
 if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of
 having been made by running the Program).
 (c) You must meet all of the following conditions with respect to the
 distribution of any work based on the Program:
         (i) If you have modified the Program, you must cause your work to
 carry prominent notices stating that you have modified the Program's files
 and the date of any change;
         (ii) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that
 in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part
 thereof, to be licensed as a whole and at no charge to all third parties
 under the terms of this License;
         (iii) If the modified program normally reads commands
 interactively when run, you must cause it, at each time the modified
 program commences operation, to print or display an announcement including
 an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or
 else, saying that you provide a warranty).  Such notice must also state
 that users may redistribute the Program only under the conditions of this
 License and tell the user how to view the copy of this License included
 with the Program.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the
 Program is not required to print an announcement.);
         (iv) You must accompany any such work based on the Program with
 the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, delivered on a
 medium customarily used for software interchange.  The source code for a
 work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it.
 For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for
 all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files,
 plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the
 executable code.  However, the source code distributed need not include
 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form)
 with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating
 system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself
 accompanies the executable code;
         (v) If you distribute any written or printed material at all with
 the Program or any work based on the Program, such material must include
 either a written copy of this License, or a prominent written indication
 that the Program or the work based on the Program is covered by this
 License and written instructions for printing and/or displaying the copy of
 the License on the distribution medium;
         (vi) You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipient's
 exercise of the rights granted herein.
 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering the
 equivalent ability to copy from a designated place, then offering
 equivalent ability to copy the source code from the same place counts as
 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
 compelled to copy the source code along with the object code.
 3.      Reservation of Rights.
 No rights are granted to the Program except as expressly set forth
 herein.  You may not copy, modify, sub-license, or distribute the Program
 except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise
 to copy, modify, sub-license or distribute the Program is void, and will
 automatically terminate your rights under this License.  However, parties
 who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not
 have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
 compliance.
 4.      Other Restrictions.
 If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain
 countries for any reason, Licensor may add an explicit geographical
 distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution
 is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded.  In such case,
 this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of
 this License.
 5.      Limitations.
 THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED TO YOU "AS IS," WITHOUT WARRANTY.  THERE IS NO
 WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
 LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
 PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS.  THE ENTIRE
 RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.
 SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
 SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
 WILL LICENSOR, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE
 PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
 GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
 USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
 DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR
 THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
