Hi to all,
I take a look at PHP4 license information, I see that PHP4 is licensed under an Apache Style license.
I see at least 2 files, rand.c and image.c which are under GPL licence,
and sus break the ASF like licence of PHP4.
Do you plan to change the licence of these 2 files, or relax it with LGPL ?
The reason is that having these 2 files covered by GPL licence will prevent PHP4 ports to some proprietary platform which could only live with ASF or LGPL licence model.
Thanks for you clarification.
Regards
