I was thinking about contributing a PECL library using GPGME, but I think the licensing terms won't allow it. Here's how it breaks down: GnuPG - GPL'd GPGME - GPL'd (why can't this by LGPL?) (PECL Extension) - would have to be GPL'd, without permission PHP - conflicts with the PHP License if GPL'd I don't think there is any work around, is there? It's kind of bad that you could write a wrapper class around the gpg CLI, and be completely fine (since input/output isn't licensed), but not write a native hook into the GnuPG library to just skip pass the klunky method. Any ideas? If you have questions, comments, or need additional information about the subject of this message, feel free to contact us via phone or e-mail.
