MySQL moving to the GPL license

Just to let you know that according to Slashdot, MySQL (database) has been re-licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

Does this mean it can be included with E-Smith? Mmmmmmm, E-Smith, MySQL, Apache and PHP.

Thoughts anyone?

Oh and any sign of E-Smith 4.0?

Hey, HEY, Mike,

Whatsamattawidjuh? (New Yorkees). So Shoot me! Ha, Ha!

Do you want to give Joe and his team a heart attack? Those guys are working hard
on e-smith 4.0 final edition.
Actually, I wonder what more they can do with it. Its almost perfect, already!

Shall I make it worse? How about adding MySQL, a bunch of Perl module RPMs and the Slashdot code to the default install? Hey! Instant news site!!! :)
