So hooray, a rare instance of good sense prevailing, I take this to mean
our mysql plugin can be an ordinary part of the Shib package.

Hi Bob:

Here's the response from our community relations liason:
---
Darn - sorry Joe, this got shuffled into a todo folder and forgotten.

We will be adding an exception that allows GPL-licensed MySQL to be
used in combined works as long as the combined work is under an OSI
compatible license. They will be just fine under the exception.

The announcement should come soon.

Cheers!

So please consider this approval for your request. Sorry about the
delay and good luck on your project.

Joe
