Updated January 30, 2018
The MySQL FOSS License Exception has now been deprecated. As of the release of MySQL Community Edition 8.0.4 on January 24, 2018, the MySQL FOSS License Exception no longer applies to new versions of the MySQL Client Libraries (also referred to as 'MySQL Drivers' or 'MySQL Connectors'). It has been replaced by the Universal FOSS Exception, which you can find at http://oss.oracle.com/licenses/universal-foss-exception, along with an exception for included technology under separate license(s). (See the License Information User Manual for each MySQL related download for license information specific to that distribution.) The MySQL FOSS License Exception continues to apply to older versions of the Client Library files in which Oracle has placed notices that the MySQL FOSS License Exception applies, and this description remains here for reference purposes.

What is the FOSS License Exception?
Oracle’s Free and Open Source Software ('FOSS') License Exception (formerly known as the FLOSS License Exception) allows developers of FOSS applications to include Oracle's MySQL Client Libraries (also referred to as 'MySQL Drivers' or 'MySQL Connectors') with their FOSS applications. MySQL Client Libraries are typically licensed pursuant to version 2 of the General Public License ('GPL'), but this exception permits distribution of certain MySQL Client Libraries with a developer’s FOSS applications licensed under the terms of another FOSS license listed below, even though such other FOSS license may be incompatible with the GPL.
