Question...
Would it be illegal (patent violation) to add a compile switch to php...
--enable-gif-support-and-violate-the-unisys-patent
which activates the GIF support? We cleary say, that using it is a
violation...
As far as i know, only using the LZW Algo violates the patent, but not
having it on your harddisk, or?
