ok, so I wanted to dig a bit, b/c I really thought the original MySql exception this is based on was added to the SPDX License List https://www.mysql.com/about/legal/licensing/foss-exception/ Turns out my memory isn't completely wrong, as it was submitted: https://lists.spdx.org/g/Spdx-legal/message/538 and https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11AKxLBoN_VXM32OmDTk2hKeYExKzsnPjAVM7rLstQ8s/edit?pli=1#gid=0 but I can't find any evidence of discussion on a call or final decision, so I guess it fell through the cracks and, as it's now deprecated maybe that doesn't matter.
Turning to this exception - +1 to add as I think it meets our inclusion principles for exceptions in that:
