Yes, but if he puts it in PHP, it also has to be comfortable with other people.  I'm pretty uncomfortable with this structural mess.


    besides that i can actually think of one or two usages for
    a scanner in PHP which is not QPL. for exacle that reason the
    your DOMXML sample is void - if we had a better DOMXML under
    the same license we would use the better one.


Can you share your thoughts as to how exactly GPL scanner built into PHP in an odd way would improve your world for the better?  Remember, the scanner is already there, you can use it if you think it's useful.  We're arguing on whether it should be plugged into PHP in a backwards way or not.
