asterisk and mysql_cdr

[Tzafrir Cohen]

Hi

I'm not sure I understand this so I'll ask here:
Is there a legal issue with adding cdr_mysql support to the Debian
Asterisk package?

Please corrent me if I'm wrong here:

- Asterisk may be distributed under the terms of the GPL or under the
	terms of a modified-GPL: the GPL with some provisions to allow a
	number of libraries to be linked with it.

- One of those libraries is openh323, whose license is MPL (incompatible
	wit hthe GPL)

- Thus if I want to link with openh323 I need to have asterisk licensed
	with the modified GPL (or an alternative license from Digium, which is
	not an option here)

- the mysql client libraries are licensed under the terms of the GPL.
	Thus it is illegal to link asterisk with a modified-GPL license to
	together with mysql client libraries.

Hopefully I'm wrong somewhere...
