OK, if you're producing something with a significant commercial value
then spring for the dollars to pay for zend encoder and use it. Seems
like some people want it both ways - my code is different and unique and
has commercial value in and of itself but I'm not prepared to spend real
dollars to protect it, I want free code to do that.
I suspect that many people in this situation have an overly high opinion
of their code and, in reality, there are open source or free
alternatives that do much the same (albeit elegant and easily
customisable or whatever) and, as such, not worth spending the money on
zend.
CYA, Dave
