The third conmercial one (next to Zend and ioncube) is http://www.camouflage-encoder.com/ which promises "guaranteed support for new PHP versions within 3 months" and "full support for PHP 5.3 and PHP 5.4" (both quotes from the mentioned page) If the commercial vendors don't provide 5.5 versions apparently they don't care about that market. So if you want it you should talk to them and convince them that they loose profits ... nothing we can do and this is not the forum for that conversation. From the non-commercial side these bcompiler etc. seem not to attract developers. So apparently there seem to be no sponsors willing to take that work ... while it is hard to find qualified developers with both, knowledge of PHP internals and crypto/security ... but checking commit logs, credits etc. might lead to people one could eventually ask ... while this list is no job market either ;) johannes
