SQLite is one of the most widely-used, best-documented, best-tested, and 
well-respected software packages in the world.  It is used all over by 
the place on many different platforms.  The code, documentation, and 
some of the tests are in the public domain, freely usable and forkable 
by all (though I don't know why anyone would want to fork it).  It is 
true that part of the test suite is only released free to SQLite 
consortium members.  I imagine that is done as an incentive to help 
finance the on-going development and maintenance of SQLite.
