They are perfectly free to distribute this extension from their own site and leave us out of their license mess. -RasmusFree is limited to Country and City, if any other use is provided you have stepped outside of GPLI don't care about the data. You are mixing two different things here. You have to buy commercial data for the lib to be usefull, but the lib is GPL. The PHP Module only deals with the GPL lib. This is well outside of scope. Can we get a vote on inclusion? If you are not a fan of licenses exceptions but do not see any threats to PHP, please do not vote -1. I'm +1 ;)
