I am sure they are not E_STRICT compliant though. regards, LukasBesides, even if the external package license should be changed the package maintainer can still use the old version and effectively fork the third-party library.Which is what I did, for instance, with Console_Getopt by taking the PHP 4 code, rewriting it for PHP 5 + E_STRICT, and bundling it as PHPUnit2/Util/Getopt.php for PHPUnit 3. But this was only a short-term solution and it does not give me the means to implement feature requests like colors and progress bars for the PHPUnit TextUI test runner, for example.
