Basically, my forked json-c handles things like Unicode and complies with the JSON spec for escaping certain characters, as well as a few other bug fixes and what not. You can't get a working php-json (er, well, that's what it was called for the past year and a bit) without the bundled "Omar's json-c". > Omar, can you get the contributors (any beside you?) to change the > license of the whole thing to PHP license? I'll try, but I've never spoken to the json-c developers. The project looked abandoned when I was doing this stuff a year ago, so I forked it. Doesn't mbstring bundle a LGPL library? > Andi Omar
