the license file in msql (quoted on their website) says:

    You can use this software free of charge if you are an educational
    institution (excluding commercial training organisations),
    non-commercial research organisation, registered charity,
    registered not-for-profit organisation, or full-time student.

so this is like saying, if  (you are non-commercial) { use GPL; } else
{ use msql-license; }

I'm not very sure about this. Maybe we should ask someone.
