             Summary: Are Apache projects allowed to ship mysql-jdbc-connector in binary convenience releases?
                 Key: LEGAL-200
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-200
             Project: Legal Discuss
          Issue Type: Question
            Reporter: Jakob Frank


The mysql-jdbc-connector is GPLv2 [1, 2], but has a FOSS License Exception [3].

Does this exception allow Apache projects to bundle the binary of the mysql-jdbc-connector within a convenience binary?
