Food for thought: As I look through the Zend website, and applaud their efforts to create 'protected' php applications, I can't help but wonder about the impact (or lagality) or their efforts. Doesn't the use of the Zend Encoder (or any other PHP Encoders out there) violate the GPL License or the whole Open Source Concept?
As far as I understand it, the GPL License states that the source code of any product created from an open source solutions, or is derived from the work of an open solutions, must be made availabe to all users. Since PHP itself is open source, then wouldn't that prohibit a developer from encoding any PHP product? Please correct me, if I'm wrong. I'm just curious. -john =P e p i e D e s i g n s www.pepiedesigns.com Providing Solutions That Increase Productivity Web Developement. Database. Hosting.
