That's how I read it as well.  From mysql.com: "...if you use MySQL in 
an application you redistribute, the complete source code for your 
application must be available and freely redistributable under 
reasonable conditions."   I think the real issue is the release of the 
application.  If it's internal, and never released, then there's no problem.
