Hi Blaise, Thanks for the proposal. PHP bindings + Drupal support for liblicense may indeed be a complete project in itself. In addition to Denver Open Media, I believe that an Australian team has also recently done their own version for the Pool project. I guess the big question here is what DOM plans to do and how much overlap there is. Please update your proposal when you hear from them so we have a good idea of what they're planning to do and how your work is differentiated from it.
