Re: 1, the following is a quote from the aforementioned licence pag (http://www.hwaci.com/cgi-bin/license-step1 http://www.hwaci.com/cgi-bin/license-step1) --- Even though SQLite is in the public domain and does not require a license, some users want to obtain a license anyway. Possible reasons for obtaining a license include: * You are using SQLite in a jurisdiction that does not recognize the public domain. * You are using SQLite in a jurisdiction that does not recognize the right of an author to dedicate their work to the public domain. * You want to hold a tangible legal document as evidence that you have the legal right to use and distribute SQLite. * Your legal department tells you that you have to purchase a license.
