Hi Derick, I thought it would make sense to have the same license for the extension and the underlying library, but I'm fine with changing it to the PHP License. That some files claim that it is distributed is caused by the fact, that I've written this extension for myself and then forgot to change it, but now it looks like it's better to change the README instead ;-) johannes Derick Rethans wrote: > On Sat, 24 Apr 2004, Johannes Schlueter wrote: > >> Since GNU Libidn is distributed under the LGPL I've chosen to use >> LGPL, too.
