Has there been any discussion of how a company should provide extensions to PHP if the company prefers not to release their source code? I have had a few discussions recently with some companies who have Java and COM versions of their products available for JSP and ASP web developers. Many people in these companies are interested in the PHP developer market, but are unsure how to do so. I realize that PHP supports both COM and Java, but there is an interest in providing native C/C++ and PHP support. What options does such a company have?Nothing in the PHP license prevents you from creating a closed-source, proprietary module. Nothing stops you from selling it either.
