Marcus Borger's Blog: PHP, Help from Companies & Licenses
by Chris Cornutt March 11, 2009 @ 12:57:34
In this new post to his blog, Marcus Borger looks a companies and their relationship to the PHP project - more specifically Zend and their close ties with PHP and its source.
Why can Zend not simply change the license of the Zend Engine to PHP License? Why do we want this? Because it creates issues with using PHP. And we do not even inform people about it, because we are silent about this fact. So is there a reason why this has not happened already long ago?
He points out the two different sides to consider - how they (Zend and their employees) have contributed to the language and its development and what the license says about ownership of the main engine. Andi Gutmans (of Zend) has made a comment on the post about why the licensing is set up how it is and how it relates to the TSRM library.

Andi Gutmans' Blog: Zend Server is here! (almost)
by Chris Cornutt February 20, 2009 @ 15:17:44
Andi Gutmans has posted some of his own thoughts about the recent Zend Server beta release over on his Blogspot blog:
As I alluded in my New Year's post we've been very busy working on a new product line which today we are unveiling as Zend Server. Zend Server is not a Zend Core or Zend Platform derivative (although it uses a small amount of those components, mostly enhanced) rather it's a new approach on how we want to develop, distribute, and service our production products.
He talks about some of Zend's reasoning behind the project such as the need they saw in the community for a good, easy to install full web stack that can be relied on to provide solid, dependable performance. The entire setup is free of dependencies making it idea for a "drop in" kind of package for those needing an environment on Windows, Linux or Mac OS X.
You can find out more information about this new Zend offering on this page on the Zend website.
