hi rasmus,
re: license, that's actually fine with me. the pear-ized php license looks
totally fine.
my question was specifically regarding copyright and how you intend to
handle it with pear.
it is:
-every file that I have seen in pear so far is copyrighted by the PHP
Group, despite the fact that many of the authors are not members of the PHP
Group.
So, do I have to sign over copyright to the PHP Group for everything I
contribute to PEAR?
That question is extremely important to me.
