[Maria-discuss] Backporting bug fixes to 1.0?
by Justin Swanhart 24 Aug '16

24 Aug '16

I have created a GitHub fork of MaxScale which does not include the 2.0 branch. The repository is called GPLScale. There is a big potential problem with this. Take for example the file server/core/utils.c, which now has a new license: https://github.com/mariadb-corporation/MaxScale/blob/2.0/server/core/utils.c This file WAS covered under GPL: https://github.com/mariadb-corporation/MaxScale/blob/cb3213af6382c380df9fc4… When there is a bugfix in 2.0 for server code that existed in 1.0, can that code be backported directly into GPLscale? a) util.c in 2.0 is clearly derivative of 1.0, and is therefore a derivative work of 1.0 and therefore still covered by GPL and b) there is a "violation" of GPL, because 1.0 GPL code is being linked against code covered by an incompatible license (other code in MaxScale). Almost all of the files in MaxScale 2.0 derive from 1.0 so this problem is not just in one file of course. The FSF says that the owner of the software can't legally violate the GPL they can morally violate the GPL. Will MariaDB commit to backporting all bugs in 1.0 code into the 1.0 branch?

Thank you for expressing your honest opinions about the MySQL/MariaDB ecosystem. Best wishes for your next job and your open source projects.

A: "Maria Discuss" <maria-discuss(a)lists.launchpad.net> Data: Mercoledì 24 agosto 2016, 14:21 I have been fired for speaking out about the GPL and MariaDB actions that have caused great harm to our ecosystem. It has been pointed out that I have a non-compete agreement. None of my tools compete with MariaDB and I have no non-public knowledge of MariaDB technology. GPLScale remains free software under the GNU GPL license and it is my right to fork a github repo. I am not paid to work on GPLScale and I don't intend to get paid to maintain it by anyone. All my projects are labors of love. Who wants to hire me? I'm dedicated, honest, open, and I have integrity. I'm willing to risk everything for what I believe in.

MySQL may be ‘open source’, but it isn’t ‘open software’. With all the talk recently of proprietary extensions, the documentation licensing issues, the whole ‘enterprise’ vs ‘community’ debacle, well, MySQL has totally shown that they are not ‘Open Software’ company. WHEN I WAS SEVENTEEN I BROKE THE LAW AND DROVE FROM PITTSBURGH PA TO BOSTON MA FOR THE FIRST FREE SOFTWARE FOUNDATION CONFERENCE. I sat down and had breakfast with STALLMAN, TORVALDS, AND RAYMOND! My whole life is open source. I've made my living off it and I intend to make sure others have the same opportunities that I have.

[Maria-discuss] New Question: How to use Maxscale for maximum reliability?
by AskMonty KB 22 Aug '16

Hello, A new question has been asked in "MaxScale Routers" by patrik_63236. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/how-to-use-maxscale-for-maximum-reliability/ as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list. -------------------------------- I'm trying to use Maxscale in front of a Galera cluster. Performance is not an issue. The reason I'm using it is so that I can take down a node for maintenance and upgrades without downtime. But I'm not sure how to achieve this. When I run m my tests I get failures. I suspect that the problem occurs when Maxscale writes to one node and then immidiately tries to read that data from another node. -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/how-to-use-maxscale-for-maximum-reliability/
