	There are several editions.  The Open Edition is free.  The others are
for sale.  Pick the one you like.

	You need either the Open Edition (free, not certified, unlimited users,
no ODBC/JDBC), Desktop Edition (cheap, certified, local connections
only, no ODBC/JDBC), or Server Edition (pricier, certified, buy as many
licenses as you need, includes ODBC, JDBC, and replication).

	Either Open Edition or Desktop Edition.

	I don't see the Open Edition download yet.  It is supposed to be
available from SourceForge when it's ready.

	HTH,
