Hello, A new question has been asked in "Geographic Features" by massimo.manca.pn. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-clientserver-tcp-protocol/ as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list. -------------------------------- Hi, I am interested to interface embedded boards to MariaDB data bases. Actually I made some trials with Mysql and a LPC1769 based board. I am quite satisfied, the results are very good but there is a problem with the license of the Mysql TCP protocol that is released under GPL so... there is a problem to work with closed source applications. 1. I would like to know if client/server protocol is the same for MariaDB and MySql 2. I would like to know if client/server protocol for MariaDB is under GPL or LGPL 3. Is there any documentation about client/server protocol for MariaDB? Thank you very much and thank you also to fork MariaDB from MySQL, it is a better product.
