I emailed the developer asking > permission to bundle it if we choose to do it (no response yet). -1 on this idea. If we start down this path of bundling external projects, why don't we just bundle every external project PHP supports to make it the easiest? This is just an absurd notion to bundle an actively developed/maintained piece of code. The headaches it will introduce are not worth the minor benefit. If you're finding that you didn't understand/know what was needed for capability ABC to work properly, fix the documentation! Thats what it is there for. Inform the end user, don't make them dumber. >---------------------------------------------------------------< Dan Kalowsky "The record shows, I took the blows. http://www.deadmime.org/~dank And did it my way." dank@nospam-deadmime.org - "My Way", Frank Sinatra kalowsky@nospam-php.net
