[AccessD] OT - Open Source

If you plan to do an International Polyglot site,say Chinese with DBCS; 
PHP has problems with Unicode, since it is 8 bit character ISO 8859-1 
based at it's bottom end functions. This may have changed since I last 
looked at a version of PHP.

The MySQL database server is available for free under the GNU General 
Public License (GPL). Commercial licenses are available for users who 
prefer not to be restricted by the terms of the GPL.
