If someone is going to be using scripts that they grabbed from a public forum (PHP Builder, PHPClasses, etc) in a commercial product (that is going to be compiled with the Zend encoder and released), what is the protocol, if any? Do you have to get permission from the author or anything? I've read a bit of the GNU Public liscence but I didn't come away knowing any more than went I started reading it. So I figure I'd ask here where I'm sure many of you have this type of experience. Chris
