Hi,

I am writing a PHP 5 module providing bindings for GDAL and OGR.

This would be a very usefull addition to GDAL.

We should add a link to it from the GDAL Wiki once the php5-gdal webpage is publicly available:

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/#GDALOGRInOtherLanguages

It is GPL3-licensed and available here:
http://projects.geonef.fr/projects/php5-gdal/wiki

I'm wondering if it would'nt be more apprioprato to use the same license
as GDAL itself, see http://www.gdal.org.


Ideally BSD (in my mind), or at the minimum LGPL to make it clear that PHP code using it will not be bound by the GPL.

(It is not clear to me whether scripting function calls to a CPL module makes the calling code bound to GPL as well. BSD or LGPL would avoid the question.)

BTW: I'm not able to access to the above mentioned address.

There seems to be a password protection.
