Also interesting is that it's one of the small number of unquestionably public domain pieces of software. Not open source, but public domain. It's not entirely clear if you can technically put your own work in the public domain, or if you're just freely licensing it to anyone.

Sqlite was initially developed for the US military though, which explicitly makes it public domain.

It doesn't matter, but it's interesting.
