I assume you mean 2003. ;)

Also, I'd like to submit, again, that yes, the situation has changed.. See:

This appears true, but knowing that the above satisfies requirements assists
in evangelism - if we know that the license is now acceptable, it merely needs
to be in the tarballs, that allows for a more focused effort to be unleashed
against MySQL AB.
