The ByteFX provider has been bought by MySql themselves and this one
is now available as their own provider. It's GPL-ed though, so if you
don't want to GPL your own software you either should buy a license
from MySql (250euro+ )or use a 3rd party one. There's also one over at
sourceforge, which is also GPLed.
We use the 3rd party provider from Core Lab. It's rather inexpensive
so if you don't want to GPL your software it's a good alternative.
