Could you please clean that up? it is important because we don't allow GPL extensions to be hosted on pecl.php.net but lgpl is ok. Rasmus also mentioned two things on irc when looking into the code: "not keen on his last_error and vnc_location globals, but the code looks ok" "Any extension that needs RINIT/RSHUTDOWN functions makes me nervous" -- Ferenc Kovács @Tyr43l - http://tyrael.hu
