I only gave the PHP > license as an example for a home-brewed license (which could be wrong, but > that was the intention). Ok, but please post your draft here when you have it. It is not a trivial thing to write a new license. There are a number of things that could cause a license to be troublesome. And if you are not taking an existing known license of some sort, I need to take it to the IBM legal team. Things like the GPL and the first version of the MPL are examples of licenses that no IBM employee is allowed to touch software under. IBM, and just about any corporation with US software patents can not associate themselves with any software under these licenses. Also, what happened to the statement you made a couple of months ago which basically said that the Zend parser when bundled with PHP4 would be under the PHP License? -Rasmus
