For this specific PHP 5 competition only PHP 5 code & classes are allowed. Hmm -- does that mean that other PHP5 classes are in fact allowed? What about PHPUnit2?
I just think that external components are not allowed. I do know only one PHP 5 on PEAR, but perhaps I am wrong.
I wish they would address this issue on the site (maybe I've missed it?) as it's a pretty obvious question people will have.
I am sure that some FAQ will appear soon. The general idea is " 8. Pre-existing projects will not be accepted as submissions in this contest." which means also external pre-existing projects in my opinion. That said feel free to email Zend in this regard ;) Good luck! Cheers David Costa
