If they are fine with them being distributed then that's all good IMO. You may want to add something in LICENSE. > Since you seem to knowledgeable on License issues.

The GPL is not a licence that’s comparable with Apache software [1] so if they are GPL licensed then yes they would be to be removed / replaced with something else. Files in question: ./core/sql/common/from_GB2312.c ./core/sql/common/multi-byte.h ./win-odbc64/sql/common/from_GB2312.c ./win-odbc64/sql/common/multi-byte.h (may be others) Looking at the file it mentions “OSF/1”. It's been a couple years since I used DEC Alpha’s :-) It’s not clear to me how those files are licensed they may or may not be GPL. But they shouldn’t have an Apache header if they are not Apache licensed. I also noticed this file: /core/sql/common/swsprintf.cpp Which is "Copyright (c) 1990 The Regents of the University of California.” and looks to be BSD licensed. Again it shouldn't have an Apache license header and would this would also need to be added to LICENSE. Do you know the provenance of all the files in /core/sql/common? Sorry but it look like the rabbit hole gets a bit deeper. When I was doing some checks I may of missed some things. Searching a bit further I can see code that is: Copyright (C) 1995-1998 Eric Young (e...@cryptsoft.com) Copyright (c) 1998, 1999 Thai Open Source Software Centre Ltd Copyright (c) 1997-1999 Compaq Computer Corporation. All Rights Reserved. Copyright (c) 1997-2007, Damian Conway C<< <dcon...@cpan.org> >> Copyright Transaction Processing Performance Council And from a few spot checks an Apache headers has been incorrectly added to some of these files. This file for instance: ./core/sqf/export/lib/Parse/RecDescent.pm Is probably under the perl artistic license which may cause further complications.
