It doesn't sound like something we'd want, no.Do be fair, we may want your extension very much, but (understandably) can't accept it. Your extension could make ponies appear out of thin air, which I'd very much want, but if it requires me to break the DMCA or another license we just can't accept it. This, of course, doesn't preclude you from *releasing* the extension. PEAR (and by extension PECL) supports channels so you could set up your own channel and release it that way or just throw up the source somewhere. --Joe
