Can I include APSL-licensed code in my PECL extension?

Does anyone see any problems with including APSL code from Apple in the extension? - Gabriel --- Gabriel Ricard <gabe@php.net> wrote: > Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2005 19:15:37 -0800 (PST) > From: Gabriel Ricard <gabe@php.net> > Subject: Can I include APSL-licensed code in my PECL > extension? > To: group@php.net > > Hi folks, > > I ran into a problem with building John's version of > the zeroconf extension under Mac OS X.
