So, how about in any *new* or *revised* license we add that we (or you - or something defined as the "core" team) - can change the license without consent. not everyone will like it, but i would think that would make future moves a lot easier. ideas? If we were to add something like this, it would have to include a provision that states that any changes would not be of any nature which would cause PHP to become non-free. Nobody is going to volunteer a lot of time and effort to a project that could go commercial at the drop of a hat.

No doubt about it. If we were to go through the trouble of changing the license though, we might as well ensure it's the last time we have to do it forever. Zeev -- Zeev Suraski <zeev@zend.com> http://www.zend.com/ For a PGP public key, finger bourbon@netvision.net.il
