I will not say that below 100% true, but I believe I have read that on
different lists and mySQL license site

* free for not profit? Okay.

    but do you know that on their site was said:

    if developer have developed app for use in company (!)
    of that developer -- license must be paid.


* mySQL server is free for ISP itself.
    but if ISP now give access to his clients,
    clients should pay commercial license.


May be something was changed after Oracle get mySQL,
I did not check last year.
