Does this mean I can legally violate the license outside N.C.?

> accordance with

No, that means that the law of North Carolina apply, not whatever jurisdiction you might find convenient.

See, for example, http://www.contractstandards.com/clauses/governing-law

Two questions:

1) Why would offer a license if it's public domain? Unless the license was to offer support which I don't see it on that page.

2) Where did you get the $1000 from - it's also not on that page?

Re: 1, the following is a quote from the aforementioned licence pag (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.

Both are answered in the first link.

Doh! I only read the license.

That's a really nice solution, I like that!
