Goba, Thanks for getting back to me so soon. We need your help in a couple of areas. We believe the PHP documentation is covered under your GPL but we just wanted to make sure it was ok to deliver it, unaltered, in the ThoutTReader format. We have already converted PHP 4.0 into the ThoutTReader format and it is ready to load. We have written scripts that will convert PHP 5.0 into the ThoutTReader format in a matter of minutes once the documentation is released. The same holds true for any other documentation you wish to convert. We need a point of contact to provide the PHP 4.0 documentation (.JAR file) to with a short description of the ThoutTReader. Note: The ThoutTReader easily supports multiple languages. Finally, we will also link back to PHP.net from the PHP section of our website. Please check it out at www.osoft.com/store. This site will be activated and all content loaded just prior to the OS Convention. Regards, Mark ============================================ Mark D. Carey President OSoft, Inc. 2511 S.
